Alright. The reason this works is because the static linker is instructed to 
first link libVc.a then main.o. When it sees libVc.a it throws out everything 
that is not used, i.e. everything. Then it comes to main.o which uses stuff 
from libVc.a ...

Thanks, opened https://github.com/VcDevel/Vc/issues/104 for it.

You can possibly ask them for something in /opt. They will not update the 
system stuff, I guess.

Oh really? I recommend you take the plunge. It can be very useful to have 
clang as an option.

[please enable javascript to see the address] There's really something broken 
with the mailman installation. I'll contact the admin.

Cheers,
