        <pre>Clang emits a no-op return adjusting thunk for this code, but more importantly,
it adds a slot to D's vtable, which is an ABI problem:

$ cat t.cpp
struct A { };
struct B : A {};
struct C { virtual A *f(); };
struct D : C { virtual B *f(); };
D d;

MSVC creates a single-entry vftable for D, while clang gives it two entries.

I realized this after committing r197836, which only scratched the surface of
the problem.  We need to actually calculate the adjustment and see if it is
empty.</pre>
