Elizabeth Andrews 6593df241a Currently clang does not emit unused static constants. GCC emits these
constants by default when there is no optimization.

GCC's option -fno-keep-static-consts can be used to not emit
unused static constants.

In Clang, since default behavior does not keep unused static constants, 
-fkeep-static-consts can be used to emit these if required. This could be 
useful for producing identification strings like SVN identifiers 
inside the object file even though the string isn't used by the program.

// C Language Family Front-end
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

Welcome to Clang.  This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages
(C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM
compiler infrastructure project.

Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things
beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of
different source-level tools.  One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.

If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read
the relevant web sites.  Here are some pointers:
