I don't think there's any side-effects on Clang standalone builds. Is that what you mean with "standalone clang build scenario"?

I would like top prevent people from writing custom build scripts on top of CMake. Passing a number of very similar paths to CMake, e.g. each time we want to generate a Xcode project for development, this option seems to become compelling quickly. This patch makes standalone configurations simpler. Basically, it provides a default value. I doesn't cut down functionality.

You can still explicitly pass any path you want. This branch will then not be taken.
