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

	<author>Michael Larabel</author>
	<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>
