That is an unfortunate decision on the part of wine. Gcc is a very robust compiler.
I'm not surprised, honestly. I suspect the primary motivation for
Clang is that Microsoft contributed support for PDB to LLVM, but
nobody brought it into GCC as far as I know. That said, we don't have
any debug infrastructure for PDB, only DWARF (which is what GCC uses
in Fedora).
