[gentoo-soc] [GSoC] Native-clang: weekly report #4

[Lei Zhang]

Howdy!

Progress this week:
- submit patches to clang/LLVM that enables clang to build binaries
against musl-libc on x86 platforms; they're accepted
- submit patches (based on previous ones) that add support for musl on
ARM; they're waiting to be reviewed
- study the problem of feature test macros that prevents LLVM from
being built against musl and find out _GNU_SOURCE to be the culprit
- manage to make libc++ work without globally defining _GNU_SOURCE

Plan for next week:
- work out a decent patch for libc++ to reap of its dependence on _GNU_SOURCE
- based on the above, make clang not predefine _GNU_SOURCE when using libc++
- study catalyst and try to prepare a clang + musl based stage3 tarball
