Yes, I have, I updated my main machine, had to reinstall the clang
environment, figured out the one in fedora doesn't support it, reported
it to the fedora guys, next version will have it, this way we'll have
one less roadblock.

But this is complex code, that needs reviewing, as is several other
fronts, and december I was out, vacations, life got in the way (a son,
heya!).

We'll get there, expect progress in the coming days and weeks.
