The difference between theory and practice is that in theory there is no 
difference between theory and practice. 

-> please test and continue every several days, as clang evolves in HUGE steps 
very fast. I can still remember a few weeks ago when the compiler self hoseted 
for me for the first time. 

Just for reference, how can I do those test myself? Where is your SVN (git?) 
for me to test new code?
