Description Jan Beich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-09-11 08:22:13 UTC
When a port has USES=compiler:c++11-lang on FreeBSD 8.4R it pulls lang/clang33. However, the version provided by the port is quite buggy. Unlike clang 3.3 in base of 10.0R it doesn't contain many fixes, like LLVM PRs 12250, 15840, 16038, 16562, 16727, 16785, 17461/16474, 17026, 18098 and many more.

LLVM/Clang release engineering improved starting with 3.4.x series and they now have point releases. Recently, lang/clang34 was updated 3.4.0 -> 3.4.3. Let's stop depending on Clang X.Y.0 releases by default like we already do for USE_GCC=yes.

This won't work, http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=263998 was never merged back to freebsd 8 and is merged in 9 only in 9.3 (so 9.1 doesn't have it)
