iOS and Windows apps to soon run on Android?

on YouTube ↗42m

" summary

Claims that GCC/LLVM/Clang run natively on Android and that parts of Android already compile with clang with performance near GCC, demonstrated as a 50% build in ~30 hours that boots intermittently on a Galaxy Nexus. Shows toolchain hacks, STL porting, bootstrapping, and an app-hosted development environment (vi make objdump) plus proposals for an iOS/Windows/Linux app compatibility stack via dynamic-linker and API shims and notes first apps could appear within weeks for narrow targets.
