            Bug ID: 46571
           Summary: POWER8 and "error: unknown type name 'inline'" when
                    using -std=c89
           Product: clang
           Version: 8.0
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: C

I'm working with a project that wishes to use -std=c89 -pedantic for
testing.[1]

Compiling a POWER8 source file that uses vector built-ins [2], such as vec_ld,
results in the following. It looks like Clang disagrees with 'inline' from
<altivec.h>.

I don't have a reproducer at the moment. The only POWER8 machine I have access
to with Clang 8.0 is at Travis. The GCC compile farm has old versions of Clang,
and I am getting different compile errors.

>From [2]:

clang-8 blake2sp.c blake2s.c -o blake2sp -O3 -I../testvectors -Wall -Wextra
-std=c89 -pedantic -Wno-long-long -mcpu=power8 -DBLAKE2SP_SELFTEST
