I'm pretty sure Clang doesn't come with 10.5. I don't remember having to do anything special with 10.6, but I don't know whether 10.6's version is compatible with the latest version. How can I find out?
As for my personal stance on upgrading: My 10.5 laptop is a 1st-gen MacBook which are 32 bit only, so it doesn't make much sense to upgrade to 10.6. My work Mac does run 10.6 but I've only heard of people having problems with 10.7, so it'll take a long time until I will feel confident to take that step. I think Bryan O'Sullivan recently reported having issues after upgrading to 10.7 as well. Thus I assume many will wait to upgrade, as well.
