The LLVM team have just announced that the Clang compiler has become self-hosting:

In addition, Apple's Xcode has support for compiling with Clang instead of gcc; although they go to efforts to highlight that it's a work in progress still.
Are there any thoughts on supporting Clang as a toolchain for CDT? There's a clang-gcc front-end which makes it look like gcc as far as I know, and although Apple is firmly behind LLVM and Clang, it is available for other systems.
