Maybe we should move to gcc?

Hi,

I hope that 'moving to gcc' does not mean dropping support for clang.

My policy with platforms (including compilers) is to try to support more than one. When intermittent issues appear on one compiler, it is then easier to switch to another working compiler until the issue is resolved. When the code base is built to be compatible with MSC, CLANG and GCC (avoiding the known weak spots and/or bugs of each), the capability to handle new issues and avoid down time in such situations is far better.

Best regards,

Tom
