[petsc-users] compile PETSc on win using clang

Configure Options: --configModules=PETSc.Configure --optionsModule=config.compilerOptions --with-cc="win32fe cl" --use win32fe clang --with-fc=0
 --with-debugging=0 -CFLAGS="-O2 -MD -wd4996" -CXXFLAGS="-O2 -MD -wd4996" --with-mpi=0 --with-clean=1 --force --with-scalar-type=real
 --ignore-cygwin-link -CFLAGS="-O2 -MD -wd4996" -CXXFLAGS="-O2 -MD -wd4996"

It should be --with-cc="win32fe cl --use clang"

But then - this mode is untested with configure - so there could be other issues.

Also - do you need c++? If not - use --with-cxx=0. This can avoid the error below. [for clang++ - you might need --with-cxx="win32fe cl --use clang++" - again untested - so might not work..]
