Especially since no work was done by the clang folks to bring FreeBSD’s system up to date. No work on getting gdb in ports working, no work on updating crunchgen, no work on forward porting kgdb, not even producing a roadmap for this or even documenting what work needed to happen. The switch was just thrown and there was fallout. So attacking that there was fallout is really out of line.
