Hi Mark,

Thanks for all the work you've put into getting FreeBSD/powerpc*  
building with clang, it's much appreciated.  As time permits I'll be  
reviewing and marshalling your patches in.

The fix for PR 215819 just went in (r311912), and will be MFC'd along  
with all the other patches after they're all in HEAD (I chose 2 weeks  
as a good ballpark frame).  The others will go in as I regression test  
them.

- Justin
