I don't think it's reasonable to hold Fedora hostage to clang's subset
of gcc.  I'd be fine with adding hacks to clang to accept-but-ignore
cflags it didn't know about (or in the -fstack-protector-strong case,
alias it to -fstack-protector).  But taking things out of the default
cflags that clang doesn't support isn't my favorite idea.

(I also think packages building with clang in koji should be at least
explicitly tracked, but they kinda already are, because you'll have
BuildRequires: clang{-devel}.)
