I have no experience on Windows, but I believe Clang should behave
similarly independent (ish) of the host OS.

On Linux, you need ARM libraries and a linker. Assuming you have that
on Windows, it should work in the same way.

No docs that I know, but there is a lot of interest in libc++ from the
ARM community. Though, I'd assume most of the interest is on Linux /
A-class. I'm not sure how that would fare on an M-class.

You shouldn't have much problems on A8, but it may get weird on the
M4. It's worth a try, though.
