Comment (by carter):

 tl;dr

 the current state is such that if you do mix and match any combo of clang
 / gcc (and anything not them ) for with-gcc and with-cpp, you'll hit build
 failures because of how the libraries make files are setup.

 Also it currently doesn't have the right logic for CPPHS as an alternative
 to gcc/clang in the build side. BUT you can put that info in yourself in
 the settings file.
