C, C++, Objective-C, and assembly all can do with a single driver, yet the offload stuff now has both clang-offload-wrapper and clang-offload-bundler. Why isn't just `clang` enough?
Well, theoretically both bunder and wrapper functionality can be implemented directly in the clang driver, and so technically these tools can be eliminated. But it is just a matter of splitting functionality into well-defined logical pieces:))
