My apologizes for double posting. I would be remissing in neglecting to mention
that I have done very little work here, relative to the efforts of the community.
In particular, Alp Toker and his team at Nuanti were instrumental in getting us
to this stage.

I should have performance-/functionality-/stress- test results (run on two
kernels, each built with the same configuration, one with the GNU toolchain,
one with Clang).

Unfortunately, my web server is currently not externally accessible due to
networking issues at my school (not likely to be cleared up for a week or so).
Any suggestions for a respectable hosting location? I would use github (one of 
the few hosts I'm comfortable with), but it doesn't seem ideal for hosting web
pages.

I am not going to be making the build process and necessary source code openly
available for a few days. I need to run regressions and unit-tests on
clang-built Linux kernels, which I'm sure will uncover subtler issues that need
to be fixed.
