Annotation of dietlibc/README.clang, revision 1.2

1.1       leitner     1: clang (from LLVM) can be used to compile against dietlibc, but it can
                      2: not be used to compile dietlibc itself.  The reason is that dietlibc
                      3: uses gas (the GNU assembler, part of binutils) features in the assembly
                      4: parts that are not yet supported by clang.
                      5: 
                      6: The build process compensates by passing -fno-integrated-as to clang,
                      7: but that makes compilation with clang much slower than compilation with
                      8: gcc.
                      9: 
                     10: Still, the end result appears to work.
