</div></div>Sorry for the double post, but I just realized I needed to clarify something.<br>
<br>
I do not think that libc++ should attempt to be compatible with MSVC<br>
where MSVC does not implement C++0x or makes things difficult. My main<br>
concern is Clang+Windows compatibility when Clang gets C++0x support.<br>

I support your opinion. The ideal option would be Clang+LibCxx in Windows as the default compiler.<br>It would be a great goal.<br><br>Regards,<br><br>
