Well, to be fair, that should be "why llvm-gcc isn't ..." - llvm-gcc may behave
differently from regular gcc in a number of ways, given that the back end is
completely different (some -W checks simply don't work in llvm-gcc; as I
remember, some of the "not set before use" checks don't actually catch anything
with llvm-gcc, although they *do* work with clang - perhaps the GCC front end
is expecting the back end to do some work that the LLVM back end is expecting
the front-end to do, but Clang does that work).
As for GCC, there appear to be some bugs about -ftrapv on x86-64, at least:
