I. Background
FreeBSD includes the Clang C/C++ compiler in the base system. FreeBSD 14.0
and FreeBSD 13.3 include Clang version 17.
II. Problem Description
Clang 17 has a bug that results in a crash under certain circumstances.
III. Impact

IV. Workaround
Avoid use of -fzero-call-used-regs, or install a version of Clang other than
17 from ports or packages.
V. Solution

branch (releng) dated after the correction date.
Perform one of the following:
1) To update your system via a binary patch:
Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD on the amd64 or arm64 platforms,
or the i386 platform on FreeBSD 13, can be updated via the freebsd-update(8)
utility:
# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install
2) To update your system via a source code patch:
The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable
FreeBSD release branches.
a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the
detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.
# fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/EN-24:07/clang.patch
# fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/EN-24:07/clang.patch.asc
# gpg --verify clang.patch.asc
b) Apply the patch. Execute the following commands as root:
# cd /usr/src
