Hi James,
Louis Dionne, author of the boost hana metaprogramming library, has found c++14
related bugs in clang 3.4 that cause clang 3.4 to segfault. Louis says those
bugs are fixed in clang 3.5. I am not sure if he reported those bugs here, or
if the llvm/clang usage patterns would find those bugs even though they exist.
But, apparently there are some limitations to the support for the c++14 dialect
in clang 3.4.

enjoy,
Karen
