That's basically enough in my experience, but it sort of depends on
your program.  Clang tries hard to be gcc-compatible, but sometimes
random differences do crop up (typically due to bugs or areas of
active development).

The biggest area I've found is c++0x features, as gcc seems farther
along in c++0x support.  E.g., if you use std::thread with gcc, you
might want to use boost::thread instead in clang.  If you only use
C++98 features, you're probably on fairly safe ground.

[You might want to set CC as well, if your code base includes C code.]

Er, what are the error messages?
