I am worried about the day when I'll no longer be able to download Xcode
for snowLeopard. Can I use Homebrew with JUST clang?

Why would one want to demotivate people who work on an "indie" OS? Would
he/she also bash amateur music bands for making "indie" music and not
working for a major record label? What kind of person are such people?

You must be new on the Internet.

Homebrew currently has formulae for 2076 software projects in the main
repository. Of those, 24 contain a `fails_with :clang` block. So, ~1.15% of
our software catalog is known to be incompatible with Clang. I would
imagine there is another dozen or so projects that fail with Clang that we
haven't discovered and flagged yet.

And some of those only fail with old versions of Clang. Eventually 
everything will be fixed to use Clang, fear not.
