<pre>When building perl on Windows with clang-cl:
cl -c -I. -nologo -GF -W3 -I..\lib\CORE -I.\include -I. -I.. -DWIN32
-D_CONSOLE -DNO_STRICT -DWIN64 -DCONSERVATIVE -D_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE

-DPERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_SYS -TP -EHsc -Foperllib.obj perllib.c
clang-cl.exe: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-GL'
In file included from perllib.c:10:
In file included from ..\lib\CORE\perl.h:3060:
In file included from .\win32thread.h:4:
./win32.h(284,25) : error: 'selectany' can only be applied to data items with
external linkage
That line is:
extern const __declspec(selectany) union { unsigned __int64 __q; double __d; }
__PL_nan_u = { 0x7FF8000000000000UI64 };
If it's written like so, clang-cl accepts it:
union U { unsigned __int64 __q; double __d; };
extern const __declspec(selectany) U __PL_nan_u = { 0x7FF8000000000000UI64 };
I guess cl.exe applies the declspec to __PL_nan_u while we try to apply it to
the type? (Even though it's written before "union", so according to
<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__msdn.microsoft.com_en-2Dus_library_dabb5z75.aspx&d=AwMBaQ&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=pF93YEPyB-J_PERP4DUZOJDzFVX5ZQ57vQk33wu0vio&m=J02LpY0UV3WXEwLkmozoL4dE-bVtxqzicgYceOrTO0g&s=jOZyTEtGzI2Q474cYD0mIjC4Ex0gNer1GosU13eXCec&e=">https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dabb5z75.aspx</a> it should apply to the
variable.)</pre>
