Just to understand: You're running in the issue with the header being
included from within the extern "C" {}? Hm, I've pushed a quick fix for
that.
Other than that, you can compile with both gcc or clang, but clang needs
to be available. Will be guessed from PATH if clang clang-5.0 clang-4.0
(in that order) exist, similar with llvm-config llvm-config-5.0 being
guessed. LLVM_CONFIG/CLANG/CXX= as an argument to configure overrides
both of that. E.g.
./configure --with-llvm LLVM_CONFIG=~/build/llvm/5/opt/install/bin/llvm-config
is what I use, although I also add:
LDFLAGS='-Wl,-rpath,/home/andres/build/llvm/5/opt/install/lib'
so I don't have to install llvm anywhere the system knows about.
