What's the purpose of the author just listing these on their site instead of reporting the bugs to LLVM? They even seem to be actively hostile to their proposed fixes being used, given the copyright notices on pretty trivial functions and the 'terms of service' at the bottom of the page (i.e. it might be a bad idea for an LLVM contributer to read this page).

Yeah - I didn't understand the hostility - if these fixes had been refused or not even considered, than maybe, but they all seem like honest bugs that need fixing.

Years ago, bugs I would file against Clang got attention, these days it seems like a black hole.
I have no data or inside insight, but my feeling is that most contributors only work on what their employer wants, and bugs from the public are not relevant.
Still better that’s its open source than not though!

From the same author: "Deficiencies in GCC's code generator and optimiser" [1]
This person certainly seems to enjoy writing polemics about compiler output (although I'm not sure I could tell you what, exactly, it is that they're mad about)

My Brave browser classifies this as a phishing site. Needless to say, I didn't proceed.

My Brave browser didn't flag it for anything.
EDIT:
Did some research, hier-im-netz.de appears to be a hosting platform offered to Deutsche Telekom customers. I suspect there's plenty of phishing or malware hosting going on on a variety of its subdomains, pulling down the safety score of all its subdomains.

This specific page however seems fine
