Hmm, I suppose that when we switched to using inline namespaces for much 
of the new ABI, switching compilers became more feasible; now tags are 
only used for functions and variables, so you're less likely to run into 
a problem, but it could still cause trouble if you use one of the tagged 
functions in libstdc++ and get the one returning an old-ABI string.  So 
I would be nervous about using clang with a dual-ABI libstdc++.  Does 
clang use the new ABI by default with GCC 5 libstdc++?  If it uses the 
old ABI then using the un-tagged function names is fine, but we don't 
want it to link with code that uses the new ABI.
