In attempting this I found how to control the behavior based on
the assembler notation @toc being missing vs. being present.
If llvm should change is strongly tied to llvm's criteria for
gcc compatibility relative to filling-in/defaulting omitted
@toc's in the assembler notation.
FreeBSD has the option of always being explicit with @toc in order
to avoid differences in handling of omitted notation.
So I've no clue if FreebSD wants to claim that a llvm change
is a requirement for using clang as the powerpc64 system compiler.
[The issue of the distinction is submittable to llvm either way.]

I omitted "-f -gdwarf-2" to simplify things but with such
clang complains about:
locore64_simplified.S:36:2: warning: DWARF2 only supports one section =
per compilation unit
.section ".toc","aw"
^
locore64_simplified.S:47:2: warning: DWARF2 only supports one section =
per compilation unit
.section ".opd","aw"
^
(buildkernel gets such messages.)
I expect I can simplify the .S code more than I have so far but
I figured I'd report the discovery of the choice FreeBSD needs
to make for powerpc64 for if llvm changes are to be required
vs. not.
