[cfe-dev] Clang unit test failure / Windows

This is clearly the MSys shell transforming the "/c" argument into "c:/".
The test is listed as "REQUIRES: shell-preserves-root" to prevent running
it in such environments.

How are you running things precisely and what are you actually trying to
do? If you just want to run the tests, building the 'check-clang' target is
the easiest and best supported way to do that.
