I am very inexperienced with clang's driver model, but it seems to me like putting it here is actually the *correct* way, and what clang is doing is sort of a hackish workaround for the fact that it needs to parse response files the way it does.

If someone else comes along and builds another tool based off of clang, we don't want them to have to remember to do all this every single time.  Seems like the Driver should "just work", and if a particular tool (such as clang) needs to do something funky, that's on the tool.

Thoughts?
