Just another heads up / RFC --> Re: new naming scheme for llvm/clang will cause wreckage fyi

The suggested renaming of the clang/llvm/lldb ports to 

clang-10

instead of 

clang-10.0

going forward from clang-10 onwards will have repercussions in a number of places, should it proceed, as per the PR.

For one, this does not work any more:

configure.compiler=macports-clang-10

and that is no doubt just the beginning.

It was mentioned that clang-10.0 would also cause wreckage due to the 2-digit version number, and that could be so -- I am not completely sure how base currently sets that up.

Best,

Ken
