Chandler Carruth has asked for a volunteer to start running boost regression tests for the Clang on Windows project.

Chandler cornered me at the C++ committee meeting last week, and emphasized how much they would like to see boost tests passing using Clang in a Visual Studio environment. This would be a big plus for boost developers and users in the Windows environment IMO, so I hope we can help them out.
FWIW, I started on a Clang regression (using some mgw-w64 version), but quit when I found that it would only build static libraries, which caused a huge swath of tests to fail for that reason alone.
I don't recall it misbehaving badly in other cases, though I may not have looked too closely.
Really ? Try 'bjam toolset=clang" under Windows in the Boost preprocessor test directory.

Using toolset=clang on Windows still gives "clang-linux" for me, which needs to be fixed. We also need to distinguish between 'native' Clang and 'mingw-w64' Clang (see me other post) as they use an entirely different standard library and CRT.
