This is empirical data – I actually tried this and it crashes somewhere
in llvm. I should probably have reported this to the llvm developers,
but had no time to do so (and since Xcode 5's clang works, I suppose the
bug is also already fixed).

I added capnproto as a dependency for textmate2 – if you succeed in
compiling capnproto with gcc, the resulting library would still be
useless to you and not get you any closer to the goal of getting
textmate2. I think the blacklist is thus correct.

The website talks about the binary of clang 3.2 available from the clang
developers, which supposedly (I didn't test _that_) works. clang 3.2
from MacPorts, however, does not.

I am aware of that, and MacPorts does not have one (besides gcc, which
cannot be used for the purpose of building a capnproto compatible with
textmate2 due to the stdlib mismatch). Compiling textmate2 with GCC is
not an option either.

Exactly.
