Windows Support
---------------
Clang's support for building native Windows programs, compatible with Visual

mangling, DLL attributes, and many many bug fixes. See
`MSVC Compatibility <MSVCCompatibility.html>` for details.

have been built successfully using the
`/fallback <UsersManual.html#the-fallback-option>` option.
