Does Clang 5.0.1 support gnu11 ? Note that at this point we're not even talking about moving to GNU11 features being used anywhere, just enforcing consistency between modern (post gcc-5) and old (gcc-4.x) compilers all in order to not have // style comments be a warning (which in turn is a C99/gnu99 thing).
