Here's one way:

$ clang -dumpspecs
clang: error: unsupported option '-dumpspecs'
clang: error: no input files
$ gcc -dumpspecs | grep -q gcc && echo "gotcha"
gotcha
$

Also,

$ cat Makefile
.if !empty(CC:M*clang*) || !empty(CXX:M*clang*)
IGNORE=         does not compile with clang
.warning ${IGNORE}
.endif

all:
$ make CXX=clang++
"Makefile", line 3: warning: does not compile with clang
$ make CXX=g++
$

But I figured that's probably done elsewhere I bit more sanely.
