Comment:

 HEAD as of commit 1a9832 can now build a working stage1 and stage2
 compiler when using Clang. primitive fails to build due to a Clang 'bug'
 descibed in http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=16371 but this can be
 worked around. I'll be committing this fix later, and with that a full
 stage2 build can happen.

 I'm marking this ticket closed; further problems will be put into other
 tickets.
