A compiler is chosen per-package, not per-architecture. We have a lot
of flexibility here, perhaps more than FreeBSD or GNU/Linux has:
* we have both GCC and Clang available
* we compile the kernel (kfreebsd-10) with Clang, but GCC also did
work last time we used it for this
* we still compile most other bits from FreeBSD using GCC, but should
be able to switch to Clang if we ever need to
* most of the rest of Debian GNU stuff is compiled with GCC, and most
of it can be compiled with Clang too

We almost got OpenRC working, we planned to probably switch to that as
default after jessie is released.
