<name>FreeBSD 10 To Use Clang Compiler, Deprecate GCC</name>

<p>As indicated by the Q1-2012 FreeBSD Status Report, LLVM's
Clang compiler is quickly replacing GCC for this popular BSD
operating system. The developers are also making much
progress in a GNU-free C++11 stack. For FreeBSD 10 they're
aiming for Clang as the default C/C++ compiler, deprecate
GCC, and to have a BSD-licensed C++ stack.</p>
