There probably is, which is why we have a 3/4-broken clang-cl instead of a 
fully working clang-mingw32 (which would have taken a lot less of effort).

That's unfortunate, at least for me. I have no immediate or critical need 
for a perfect substitute for MSVC - we already have two of those. I need 
Clang on Windows so that I can test for portability and Clang-specific 
issues.
