I'm presuming you'd have to make this exception just for arm, because it works with clang on other platforms?

But, I think this just masks the problem, because I think there's the bigger issue that the clang toolchain on arm appears to be broken.  In fact, I think there's a good argument to be made that the switch to clang as the default compiler shouldn't have been thrown on FreeBSD/arm because clang doesn't work fully there.  See, e.g., PR arm/178495 for a typical example.

AFAIK, a native build under clang on arm is still broken.  I have only been able to do a successful native build on arm, or build ports successfully, by using gcc as the default compiler, i.e., to set WITHOUT_CLANG_IS_CC in /etc/src.conf.

So, instead of marking ports on arm on a piecemeal basis, couldn't we undo the WITH_CLANG_IS_CC default setting until clang works properly?

(Hopefully, someone will reply and tell me it's fixed; I've kind of backed off from using my Raspberry Pi and Beaglebone Black on FreeBSD the past couple of weeks due to the broken toolchain issues.:)

Cheers,

Paul.
