Yes, this is the right place to report it, especially since this is
recent development.  For reference, support for this toolset was added
in a topic merged here:

  Merge topic 'vs-clang-cl'
  https://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commit;h=612a8b3b

based on discussion in this thread:

  [PATCH SET] Support of Clang/C2 compiler.

Mariusz, please take a look at this.

See also this hack:

  VS: Fix VS 2015 .vcxproj debug setting for older toolsets
  https://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=dc422d27

Basically we need to have a different flag table for each possible
toolset.  Also it looks like additional special handling may be
needed for PDBs and perhaps other limitations of the Clang/C2
toolchain.

Thanks,
-Brad
