If you are intending to use clang on Windows for Objective-C, then I’d strongly 
recommend using Microsoft’s fork of both clang/LLVM and the GNUstep Objective-C 
runtime:

https://github.com/microsoft/winobjc/

These contain a number of patches for better Windows support (including things 
like interoperability between Objective-C[++] and C++ exceptions on Windows) 
that Microsoft is in process of upstreaming to the various projects.  I believe 
that they also supply pre-built versions of these for Visual Studio.
