       But if as a result of those measures, all development moves from
       GCC to Clang/LLVM, this will be a pyrrhic victory :-(

   That's what life is like.  If you fight, you might lose.  If you
   surrender, you lose for certain.

However, if you command concurrent efforts, you may withdraw from some
fronts in order to push "forward" on other fronts.  I think the current
situation w/ GCC reflects a "one-eye victory" (to use a Go analogy),
which basically means that what is defended is not guaranteed to live.
