Forgot to answer your C11 question.  You should be able to invoke the underlying
clang frontend with a .c file instead of an .cxx file and have it be a C compiler.  I've
tried that a few times and it seemed to work.  However, we have not yet done work
on the headers or RTL to add anything needed by C11. (shudders thinking about threads
and atomic memory ordering).  We're certainly not going to support that at the first
ship.
