No, I haven't tried it. As even gcc backend support moves at a sedate
pace, I'm moved to wonder who works on the llvm avr backend?

Your move to discover what user base it has is a good one, but after a
couple of decades of using gcc on multiple targets, I'm probably rusted
on to the toolchain which has served me so well for so long in so many
battles.
