Thread: How to trash your code quality with awful hacks to make up for LLVM being so much worse than GCC.https://twitter.com/chandlerc1024/status/918034746587803648 …
I freely admit to doing the same fairly often, but it's not something I'm proud of or consider clean. It's "cos the compiler sucks".

It is the cleanest solution I know. There is a vast supply of compilers worse than LLVM that will need it, even if LLVM doesn't.
-
Unless one is fortunate to live in Cloudcuckooland where only ToT GCC or LLVM exists, that's the way it's gonna be.
-
GCC is really still the only compiler with near-universal target support and production-grade optimization.
-
That's not to say GCC is at all well-designed or clean, just that others have a long way to go achieving better with good design.
