Clang support for Darwin/PPC ABI?

[pepas-everly]

Hello,

Many thanks to @iains and @barracuda156 for your efforts to support Darwin/PowerPC.

I was looking today at adding pyobjc to https://github.com/cellularmitosis/leopard.sh which led me to discover that several "modern" obj-c features are only supported by clang https://stackoverflow.com/a/22275354 (I am surprised I hadn't realized this until now).

Then I came across a thread which hinted that Iain may be working on Darwin/PPC support for clang? https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/macports-development-for-powerpc-10-4-10-5-10-6-unofficial-invitation-to-cooperate.2363509/post-31693500

Anyway, I just wanted to check on that, and thank you again for your efforts!

Ah, I think I found it https://github.com/iains/LLVM-7-branch

@pepas-everly I was also referring to #30 (reply in thread)

P. S. @iains Whenever you decide to share what has been done, myself and hopefully @catap can help with testing and, if needed, work on libcxx, compiler-rt and libomp.

yeah, thanks that will be very helpful .. time, as always, is the problem here - the stuff i have in progress is not ready for posting/sharing/testing yet.
