FWIW: We were able to build Qt 5.9.3 for Android 8.1 using NDK r16b and clang 
for both 32 and 64-bit platforms. The main hurdle was getting OpenSSL to build, 
but they are already making preparations as well, so it was not a terrible 
effort.

Note: We build a subset of Qt modules, so I don't know about issues in the full 
repo.

I have also heard from some Qt folks that there may be a plan to update to 
clang with the latest NDK along with the 5.12 LTS release?

I see that there is still work in progress to support Clang, as GCC NDK is 
being deprecated, if I understand it correctly:
