[cfe-dev] State of Clang in MSYS2

[Mateusz Mikuła via cfe-dev]

I don't have rights to commit, should I ask someone to do it with:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D29464, https://reviews.llvm.org/D29772,
https://reviews.llvm.org/D29952?

Also while browsing bugzilla I came into
https://bugs.llvm.org//show_bug.cgi?id=30685.
I have developed workaround for MinGW
https://github.com/mati865/MINGW-packages/blob/clang-svn/mingw-w64-clang-svn/0107-enable-__float128-for-X86-MinGW.patch
It tricks libstc++ to think Clang supports _float128 but__FLOAT128__
isn't defined so you can compile code with <type_traits> includedbut not
with _float128 actually being used. I think it's better that way since
using _float128 with mingw will seg fault Clang.
