fedoras default cflags & clang

I'm primarily referring to development compilation, not necessarily packaging.  

The default CFLAGS cause clang to fail 'out of the gate'.  Given the popularity rise in the compiler, and the increase # of open tickets upstream around this issue, I think it prudent that we address.  

Not to change the whole packaging infrastructure, just so developers can install the tools and test their builds. 

Cheers,
Tim
