I though there's another clang-win somewhere in the works? Picking clang-linux seems suspicious to me, on Windows. If you want to make
clang-linux work, you probably can declare a function setup-threading in clang-linux.jam which basically forwards to gcc.setup-threading,
except for the case of target-os=windows, where it should do nothing.

Does this help?
