Well, building for Visual C++ 2013 *Win 64* there is a flood of:

 tools\clang\include\clang/AST/Stmt.h(437): warning C4324: 'clang::Stmt' :
structure was padded due to __declspec(align())

and also

 lib\Support\CrashRecoveryContext.cpp(29): warning C4324:
'`anonymous-namespace'::CrashRecoveryContextImpl' : structure was padded
due to __declspec(align())

We could continue fixing these or just disable this warning.
