Fair enough. But which GCC would that be ? Different versions use 
different defaults. Can I change what compiler Clang targets / emulates ?
For example, I have a Cell cross-compiler installed on my laptop (giving 
me 'ppu-g++' and 'spu-g++'). How can I make Clang use their sysroots and 
related flags ?

To illustrate my use-case a little:

I'm working on a portable library that targets different platforms. 
Depending on how I compile it, different backends are picked up. I'd 
like to be able to process that library with Synopsis to "see" all the 
active backends in the generated documentation, which requires it to 
emulate the different compilers I'd normally compile the library with.

Thanks,
         Stefan
