My point was on this specific part:

> whether or not the libgomp used is provided at runtime by gcc or llvm

You explicitly listed the case that libgomp from gcc is loaded at execution time. The most tedious issues I had with a third-party library, which is statically linked against libgomp. You won't spot the gcc libgomp with ldd.

As long as you make sure that only the LLVM OpenMP runtime is loaded during execution, it should work, yes.
