I'm completely confused about exactly what the Clang compiler is using mingw for.
It uses he mingw/gcc header files, static libs, import libs and DLLs. Essentially it is using the mingw/gcc RTL, which includes support for the C++ standard library and the Windows API.
Paul's error message means clang also uses mingw linker, ld.exe. Last time I've heard, half-a-year ago, LLVM folks were working on their own linker, but it barely reached 'links hello-world' stage. So using mingw linker is not unexpected.
You are correct. Clang also uses the mingw(-64) linker.
