I can't comment on Gnome, but I run current on my desktop and use KDE4. I had to patch a few ports to build. Those patches have been sent in as PRs. Overall, the switch to ports built with clang was amazingly uneventful. So far, I haven't noticed anything that built but didn't work properly. > I believe the work around for ports that don't build with clang is to > put USE_GCC=4.7+ in the port makefile, is this correct? Any comments > would be appreciated, thanks in advance. A good bit of fixing for clang has already been done. I was able to fix pretty much everything I encountered that didn't build with clang, so didn't have to set USE_GCC anywhere, but it's there as a "last resort." Of course, those are just my experiences, YMMV.
