Comment:

 GHC 7.6 wont build with clang, unless you backport a few patches from the
 ghc head.

 ghc 7.7 / HEAD / soon 7.8 should build with clang HEAD (also the bug fix
 branch of clang 3.3 works too).

 so while this concern is valid, the fixes are in the more current work on
 GHC. So i'm going to close it as "fixed" :)
