This is why I am asking whether or not clang support is important or not

users who care about clang for m68k, then I do not think we should
penalize them and I would not sign-off a change which negatively impacts
some users.
If clang support is important then clang's builtins are important. So why
not improve those instead? That would resolve the issue in a win-win.
I am deeply sorry, but with all your respect, this request is unfair.
I will not fix the compiler.
Let me repeat my question for the third time: are you (or any other
m68k maintainer) ready to acknowledge that we can degrade the
performance for clang m68k users? With that acknowledgement, I will
remove the asm and replace it with the builtins.
Yours sincerely,
Vincent Mailhol
