That does work but could you please look at my comment regarding a 
problem with clang and the mingw-64 intrin.h in gcc-4.9 and gcc-5.1.

I don't mind Hurcan taking over this thread I started since he had his 
own problem with clang targeting gcc on Windows, but I would like a 
little clarification of what I have reported using clang with 
mingw-64/gcc-4.9 and mingw-64/gcc-5.1. Thanks !
