I copied it to a public paste called ConfigureLogPublic at 
http://pastebin.com/yaLHmmGk.

Thanks ! If not implementing __has_include does not keep the clang 
package from working correctly, why would it be part of the
"configure"
script ?

I see that this clang has problems with parsing unwind.h.  I don't
understand how does it manage to compile LLVM/Clang.

Sorry, I did not quite get it.

It did previously without errors but some warnings.

I don't know what "__has_include" is but evidently it is not
necessary
for the compiler to successfully be used to build clang from source. So 
it seems to me that the 'configure' script should still allow that the 
compiler can be used to build clang without "__has_include".

I tried your latest patch but it still did not allow me to use clang 
under CentOS 6.3. I still get:

checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... yes
checking whether we are cross compiling... no
checking for suffix of executables...
checking for suffix of object files... o
checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
checking whether clang accepts -g... yes
checking for clang option to accept ISO C89... none needed
checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... yes
checking whether clang++ accepts -g... yes
checking how to run the C preprocessor... clang -E
checking whether clang works... no
configure: error: Selected compiler could not find or parse C++ standard 
library headers.  Rerun with CC=c-compiler CXX=c++-compiler ./configure ...
