Don't use "gcc"; use a specific compiler. Also, don't base your compile choice on the OS version. Also, it's preferable to try to make the software work with clang. If you cannot, then at least document your attempts and a link to the upstream bug report about clang incompatibility (file one if there isn't one already).
