But this is not what is being proposed. If your project does not work
with clang, everyone is happy to use GCC. If it does, but there is no
reason to use clang - we will keep using GCC. Where change comes to
play if upstream prefers clang for some really good reason - we will
allow it to be built with clang instead of GCC.
