Thanks, this worked fine for me, with one small note:

I get the following warning with clang (13.0.1) under UML (but not
under x86_64):
clang: warning: argument unused during compilation:
'-mno-global-merge' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]

It's not really a problem unless -Werror is enabled, though, so this
is still definitely an improvement over clang not working at all.

With that caveat, this is:
