No.  My Yeeloong 8101B (based on the Loongson 2F processor) is my
(relatively) high security machine, and I prefer to avoid running any
code on it that was not built natively on it from source code.  That's
also the reason I have not yet tried booting GRUB compiled with clang: I
have not yet compiled clang on my Yeeloong, as it would take a long time
to do so.

I tested building grub with clang on a different machine (the Lemote
Yeeloong 8133 laptop based on the Loongson 3A), but cannot run it there
because that machine is not supported by GRUB afaict.

The Loongson 2F does not support big-endian mode.

     Thanks,
       Mark
