This should work I think:
compiled well with clang-10.0.1, clang-11.0.0,
and gcc-10.2.0 with x86_64 default config.

is the condition CONFIG_CLANG_VERSION > 110000,
not including 110000 it self?
Ah sorry, that should definitely be >= :(

That is what I get for writing an email that late... in reality, it 
probably won't matter due to the availability of 11.0.1 and 11.1.0 but 
it should absolutely be changed.

I have not given Nick's patch a go yet but would something like this be 
acceptable? If so, did you want me to send a formal fixup patch or did 
you want to send a v4? I have no personal preference.
