clang seems "generally useful" for c and objc by now, though obviously bugs
still remain. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@65431 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

<p>While this work aims to provide a fully functional C/C++/ObjC front-end, it
is <em>still early work</em> and is under heavy development. In particular,
there is no real C++ support yet (this is obviously a big project), and C/ObjC
-support is still missing some features. Some of the more notable missing pieces
