You still need GCC (Clang still can't compile the kernel).

That's usually not considered part of the distribution itself, though, and thus not really a contributor to the discussion of "GNU/Linux" v. "Linux". That'd be like calling pre-Clang versions of Mac OS X "GNU/OSX" just because Apple used GCC to build their operating system, or calling OpenBSD "GNU/OpenBSD" just because OpenBSD still uses GCC.
