Thanks for letting us know. But it seems unlikely that anything would be
done about this kind of problem in OpenBSD unless the consequences were
particularly disruptive. Your example is similar to bugs caused by undefined
behaviour which exist in many C and C++ programs in the ports tree, and as
such it isn't very special. Our usual response to this kind of thing would
be to simply fix the obviously broken C++ program and send a patch to the
maintainer of that program.

It would be more appropriate to discuss this issue with the clang project
and let OpenBSD pick up any resulting fixes from there.
