FYI: someone has modded you down because the compiler is crashing when it compiles the C++ code, not because it is written in any particular language.

I'm aware, I care because LLVM is being integrated in web browsers as part of the JIT engine, and clang uses LLVM as its backend. So any segfaults related to LLVM (though not this one in particular) make me worried about browser security.

lol - you're aware that most web browsers are written in C++?

You do understand what an ever increasing attack surface does?
