  Ah. You meant an "OR", I thought it was an "AND".   (as in `our known selection of compilers OR/AND appleclang supports it`)
  But things are certainly not clearer now with the name CONDITION, which doesn't imply either one.
  
  Aside from the AppleClang issue, I've had cases where a compiler flag was added in an unreleased version of the compiler, so it makes sense to me to have a way to have a TRY_IF condition.
  At the same time, I guess we can have SUPPORTED_IF for the cases where we know it's supported and we want to save time by not even checking it.
  Then one could say "TRY_IF apple and clang" for the flags that we want to double-check on appleclang, instead of the function having this black magic hardcoded inside.
  And this way we don't need to check flags that work on all versions of clang like -pedantic.
  
  In summary, I suggest having both SUPPORTED_IF and TRY_IF, and moving AppleClang magic out of the function.
