    Just to clarify, upstream LibreOffice supports both GCC and Clang on
    Linux equally well since ~forever, and there is no change coming for LO
    7.0 that I'm aware of.  Upstream Linux binaries are built with GCC,
    FWIW.


I think what they are referring to is that there was a patch [1] a few months ago making Clang /preferred/ for building the LibreOffice rendering code in response to a slow-performance bug [2].

Yes, exclusively for LO's copy of the skia library (and which isn't of much use for LO on Fedora anyway, at least for now).
