I have Jenkins build job that builds GHC from Git using Clang as the C compiler.
Recently a Debian update changed clang's `-v1 output to:
{{{ Debian clang version 3.5.2-2 (tags/RELEASE_352/final) (based on LLVM 3.5.2) Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu Thread model: posix }}}
which is no longer being detected by `compiler/main/SysTools.hs` as `Clang`.
Working around this is trivially easy. Patch in progress.
