I think you mean inability?

libobjc2 has assembly fast paths for ARMv6+ and MIPS64.  They're tested by me 
with clang on MIPS n64 and ARMv7, although I haven't tried building all of 
GNUstep on either platform yet.

We're now able to build a complete FreeBSD base system for PowerPC64 with 
LLVM/Clang, but the kernel only boots if compiled at -O0.  Hopefully by LLVM 
3.5 we'll be able to switch completely to Clang there, although PowerPC32 
support is still lagging a bit.
