Hi Bjorn,

This does not happen for me.  The configure succeeds and the build gets as far
as compiling the zlib directory before complaining about an unused command line
argument.

This sounds like a bug in clang then, if it cannot compile the test file and
just hangs up instead.  Which version of clang are you using ?  (The version
I used was: clang version 4.0.1 (tags/RELEASE_401/final)

Cheers
