well there's no backtrace in those links... that doesn't help us much at
all. :) change in compiler and it works? odd in the least. options:

1. bug in code that only manifests on a different or specific compiler
(clang/llvm)
OR
2. bug in that other compiler.

that's the extent of the informtion so far. as best i know there are people who
compile e and efl using clang on linux and i don't hear any reports of issues
there related to that that i remember. so right now its a fbsd+clang+e/efl
issues ... which means you're the one reproducing and if you want it fixed...
you'll have to provide more details like backtraces... full ones etc. :) (gdb
debuging enabled, maybe use valgrind to catch stuff, print of vars and what
not).
