Anyone testing on llvm compiler? (I'm trying it now on linux F9 x86_64 llvm-2.4)
I believe that the llvm support for C++ is best described as "currently quite limited". I expect this to change over the next year or so, though.
The clang front end is certainly only in an experimental stage,
Right, we're still very early in the development of C++ support for Clang, but we aim to build an efficient, standards-conforming C++ compiler over the next few years. Clang is a compiler designed as a library (actually, a set of libraries) with an easy-to-modify modern C++ code base and a Boost-compatible, BSD-like license, which we hope will serve as a platform for the development of C++ tools in the future. We welcome community participation in Clang---testing the compiler, implementing more C++ features, building tools on top of Clang, whatever---and invite Boosters to come help us build the next great open-source C++ compiler. - Doug (Clang C++ Developer @ Apple)
