I had all kinds of very weird failures using the 64 bit clang target related to missing CPUFLAGS. For a while I hacked around it by adding a whole ton of -D for missing RTE CPUFLAGS macros. But then some further DPDK changes came and caused clang bud failures I could not debug and I had to give up and switch back to GCC. While I can't confirm this exact error I can 100% confirm very similar errors using Ubuntu 15.10 and the included clang with it.
I think the general problem is that there isn't much in the way of regression testing for the build on this compile target. So unless it breaks for just the right expert at the right time nobody finds it and tracks it down. Matthew.
