Not being sure what the limitations are on what to should be set, I added
the following to Local/Makefile:
CC=clang
CXX=clang++
CPP=clang-cpp

The compile succeed (thank you!), but with a lot of noise (I hope you get
what I mean - those compile warnings).
Now, there is a an issue. I could not figure out from the output of exim
-bV.
The RC1 complains about this:

2019-11-04 19:42:40 Exim configuration error in line 2506 of
/usr/local/etc/exim/configure:
authenticator fixed_cram: cannot find authenticator driver "cram_md5"

The 4.92.3 does not raise such a complaint.

I am not using that authenticator anyway, but that error from 4.93RC1
caught my eye.
