Clang/LLVM 2.9 is now production worthy! Xcode 4.0 GM was released to developers a few days ago, and Clang 2.9 is now the default compiler C/C++/ObjC compiler, replacing GCC. Apple recommends all new projects to use Clang/LLVM.
I just built my 80,000 LoC C++ project with it, without error, and all test cases pass.
Next version of OSX, 10.7, due out later this year, has been confirmed to use Clang/LLVM to build the kernel and everything else.
Furthermore, as of this January, FreeBSD and OpenBSD build the kernel without patches using Clang/LLVM. Clang/LLVM will become the primary compiler on those platforms within the next couple of months during the next stable point releases.
GCC is dead!
Long live Clang/LLVM!
