The external toolchain can't be that bad(?).

Are the ever change knobs documented somewhere?

please do. I bet he'd love the help.

Ugh he doesn't and TBH, I don't care enough to look for
consensus either.

I find it interesting, and even funny that even the extreme
copyleft are predicting clang will take over gcc:

Clang won't take over gcc anytime soon.
<hint> Fortran, ada? </hint>


OK, I do use fortran and even when not everyone uses fortran it's still
very difficult to avoid pulling in a version of gcc when installing very
basic ports (I recall some X stuff still requires it), but there is already
interest to make clang the default compiler in some linux distribution
(I forgot which, sorry), so it will not happen soon but it may very
well happen.
