> *   Support for generating debug info in PDB format

How useful is this? Does gdb support this format? If not, then you wouldn't be able to debug stuff, meaning this is not a benefit at all.

===========
I haven't tried this, however, according to what I have read this enables you to build with llvm and debug in visual studio, with all all the benefits of the IDE.

I believe there is also an option to include "edit and continue" functionality

Don't undervalue this functionality.
