+Note: ARM clang has a known issue with CompareExchange
+([#15074](https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/issues/15074)), so for ARM you must
+use clang-4.0 or higher. Moreover, when building with clang-5.0, the
+following errors occur:
+
+```
+coreclr/src/debug/inc/arm/primitives.h:66:1: error: __declspec attribute 'selectany' is
+ not supported [-Werror,-Wignored-attributes]

+This is fixed in clang-5.0.2, which can be installed from the apt
+repository listed below.
