[cfe-dev] clang ignoring global function declaration depending on include/declaration order

Did you find/read the linked article from that post (
http://clang.llvm.org/compatibility.html#dep_lookup ) it seems pretty
comprehensive.

Beyond the examples given on the compatibility page I'm not sure what
other general advice I can offer. Have a read over it & if you have
other questions it would be helpful if you could provide an example
you are grappling with.
