Comment (by Erik Schnetter):

 Mixing Clang and GCC in this way leads to trouble. In particular, their
 OpenMP implementations are different, leading to link errors last time I
 checked. If linking worked, it is likely there would be segfaults at run
 time. You can make it work if you disable OpenMP.

 I also don't see a good reason to mix compilers this way. If you install
 gfortran, you already have gcc and g++ as well, so you might as well use
 them to simplify things.
