I'd rather unplug ports-clang on powerpc as a first step.

Regarding other archs, it would be good to know how ports clang fails at
runtime before disabling it.  Do you have specific failures in mind?

I'd second this, and i'd even remove all the archs but the ones where we
know llvm is *working* (ie, not only builds itself, but is actually
capable of building other code...) i have doubts about sparc64 and
mips64*.

ports-clang & powerpc

[Jeremie Courreges-Anglas]

devel/llvm doesn't build on powerpc and has now been marked broken.
IIUC, skipping ports-clang would unlock a bunch of ports:

sqlite> select count(1) from ports where compiler like 
'%ports-gcc%ports-clang%';
10
sqlite> select count(1) from ports where compiler like 
'%ports-clang%ports-gcc%';
235

While here, tweak the comment, as the list should now be accurate.

ok?
