This is not true if you look at any existing stable release - Clang 12.0 doesn't support `-Wa,-mimplicit-it=`. That was only added in D96285 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D96285> on February 11th. I would request that you leave both forms of the option to coexist for at least a couple stable releases, so that users have a reasonable way of migrating forward, without immediately dropping support for all older versions of the compiler.

It turns out that libaom actually doesn't have any standalone gas-style assembly, so that option there won't ever have any effect (otherwise it would have broken my build). But this change did break my build in these places: https://code.videolan.org/videolan/x264/-/blob/b684ebe04a6f80f8207a57940a1fa00e25274f81/configure#L855 https://chromium.googlesource.com/webm/libvpx/+/66c1ff6850fd53bcf5c17247569bea1d700d6247/build/make/configure.sh#1012 https://github.com/cisco/openh264/blob/089d6c6d83ab6e5d451ef18808bb6c46faf553a2/build/platform-mingw_nt.mk#L23 > Should be an easy fix either way (replace `-mimplicit-it=always` with > `-Wa,-wmimplicit-it=always`). No, it's not an easy fix as no existing releases of Clang support it. > The linux kernel already uses `-Wa,-mimplicit-it`. Also, GCC rejects the > option: Indeed. The reason why it's common in these cases, and why the difference to GCC's behaviour in these cases hasn't been noticed, is that this flag is often needed for windows/arm, and GCC doesn't support windows/arm at all, so all those codepaths have only been used with Clang. (The reason why this option often is used for that target, is that windows on arm only supports thumb - while many codecs with handwritten assembly is written to be built in arm mode only; handwritten assembly that hasn't taken thumb mode into account may need `-mimplicit-it=always` to work in thumb mode.)
