That's useful as development system, but you will only be able to test
coreboot on emulated targets then. Which brings us to:

Expect other coreboot devs to try coreboot with clang. Expect also
that their builds won't work (compiler issues in the firmware space
_are_ complicated). Since you'll become the domain expert on clang
related issues, part of that project is to collect information on how
coreboot breaks for them when built with clang and debug that.
