It may be less problematic compared to the C++ standard library, but I doubt that mixing two implementations would work well here, either.

Right now I'm just kind of relying on an expectation that since this will be the first `c-isystem` path set, then it will pull in these libraries first if they exist. It's not captured by the tests, but compiling with `-v` shows this path being used first in my experience. So, theoretically, if there is an implementation of said header in this location, it will be picked up before anything else. Otherwise it'll just search the other standard locations.

Yeah, I wasn't sure if there was a good way to guarantee a certain path since those can change based on the system. Maybe `--sysroot`?
