Re: clang/llvm on aarch64

[Alan Corey <alan01346%gmail.com@localhost>]

I don't think it happens in Linux, I built llvm, clang and Firefox on
an aarch64 Odroid N2.  So if it's llvm it depends on the OS, could be
something inside an ifdef somewhere.  This was llvm/clang 8.0.1.

No, I won't  call it "climate change", do you have a "reality problem"? - AB1JX
