Thanks.  Out of curiosity, why doesn't 22 or 23 solve your problem?

Are you or someone else planning to maintain clang 22 or 23 for forky?

Maybe pinning to 21 is actually okay then, since that's what the
experimental upload I did already do, and hopefully I get the exact same
binary output when rebuilt for unstable now.
