It will not work like this in GCC, no.  The LLVM people know about that.
I do not know why they insist on pushing this, being incompatible and
everything.

Umm. Since they'd be the ones supporting this, *gcc* would be the
incompatible one, not clang.

I had an 'interesting' idea.

Can you use a local asm register variable as an input and output to
an 'asm volatile goto' statement?

Well you can - but is it guaranteed to work :-)
