3.4 should be fine, which probably won't become ancient in the time that =
it takes for 8 to go EOL.  We're likely to have more problems =
bootstrapping Clang 3.5 on platforms that weren't supported by clang 3.4 =
(e.g. MIPS, PowerPC), but for those the best bet is probably a =
clang-binary or similar package that is cross compiled for each of those =
platforms.  Cross-compiling clang is quite easy, as long as you have a =
sysroot set up...

Note that this is also likely to be an issue for the base system for =
FreeBSD 11.
