Ah because Debian's regular Clang is ancient.

For testing, we use the builds from apt.llvm.org. Commands assuming
you're using the normal Debian image:

curl https://apt.llvm.org/llvm-snapshot.gpg.key | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://apt.llvm.org/stretch/ llvm-toolchain-stretch main" | tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update -qq && apt-get install -y clang-8

Then use `CC=clang-8' instead of 'CC=clang' for all make invocations.

Let me know if there are any more issues!
