--- Comment #16 from Mikhail T. <mi@ALDAN.algebra.com> ---
Gentlemen, I must express a certain disappointment in the “fix” being
discussed…

Take a step back and consider: we found a bug. Whether the bug is in the
clang/llvm or in OpenJDK, it ought to be fixed at the source! FreeBSD project
certainly has a number of C and C++ experts to come up with a proper patch
suitable for submission up one of the two streams. 

The work-around - using a different version of LLVM - would’ve been acceptable
for a few days, to accommodate some tight release deadline. But this ticket is
months-old!

Forcing a user to build a whole different compiler suit in order to build JDK8,
is impolite too :-/
