If you take a look at:

    https://illumos.org/docs/developers/build/

It says:

    "The operating system is currently built with a patched version of GCC 10."

The patches are coordinated in a branch of this repository:

    https://github.com/illumos/gcc/

We also have a document that covers how we maintain our GCC patches:

    https://github.com/illumos/ipd/blob/master/ipd/0007/README.md

I think some folks have experimented with using various Clang
versions, but I don't believe anybody has yet produced a complete
working build of the OS using Clang.


Cheers.
