True. But what is hard is hiring good developers, not hiring developers that know Clojure. I found that any smart developer will have no problem adjusting to Clojure, especially given a history of any of #{Haskell, Erlang, Scala, Ocaml, SML}.

Still really rough. I have shipped two large production Erlang apps, smaller scale F# and Haskell apps. It is tough in three ways: (1) Just finding people who can do it, (2) finding people INTERESTED in using it, (3) affording people who fulfill the first two.
