There are several topics in your note, so I'm a bit confused. Let me try to
take them in turn.

If the goal is to help people get set up quickly, I think that setting up a
reference VM image isn't helpful in practice. It is *much* faster to
net-install a CentOS image (or any other major distribution) by pulling
from the major repositories than it is to copy a reference virtual machine
image.
Once you have the base image installed, the Coyotos/CapROS host-xenv
package exists to ensure that any additional packages you need get
installed.

Yes. These tools are designed to live in a POSIX world. There is no
realistic hope of separating them from that world.

I'm not clear why we would look at LLVM, unless perhaps for performance
reasons. There are some compiler features that LLVM is missing for kernel
compiles, but it might be worth a look.
But if the goal is to be able to write domains in C++, I think a better
path is to get libstdc++ and g++ ported.
