It hasn't been fixed by this. The problem is firefox not expecting readelf output as it would use llvm-readelf unless its set in the environment. The solution for the ebuild would be to set READELF="llvm-readelf" no matter if clang or gcc is used. And seeing as USE="-clang" still works and probably uses llvm-readelf in the background you probably have to export it for it be picked up.
