zig 0.15 is latest release. as zig is still no stabilised (no 1.0),
there is huge breaking changes between releases.

as soon you need to use zig compiler, you need either zig HEAD or latest
release. keeping 0.14 has only poor value now that 0.15 is released.

currently, lang/zig is ONLY_FOR_ARCHS=amd64 arm64 powerpc64 (and
powerpc64 is marked BROKEN).

would be possible to update lang/zig to 0.15 (using MODCLANG_VERSION=20)
and keep devel/llvm/20 not linked (n o SUBDIR+=20 in devel/llvm/Makefile) ?
so only amd64 and arm64 will build devel/llvm/20 ?

Regards.
