I wasn't asking if you were willing to change the test code.

There's a builtin-identifier trick that we do with library functions that we should be able to generalize to typedefs, so you wouldn't need to actually do string comparisons, you'd just check whether the `IdentifierInfo*` was storing a special ID.  We'd set that up in `initializeBuiltins` at the start of the translation unit, so the overhead would just be that we'd create two extra `IdentifierInfo*`s in every TU.

But the same storage in `IdentifierInfo*` is also used for identifying the ObjC context-sensitive keywords, by just offsetting the builtin IDs by the NUM_OBJC_KEYWORD.  You should be able to generalize that by also introducing a concept of a builtin *type* name, so that e.g. IDs in [0,NUM_OBJC_KEYWORDS) are ObjCKeywordKinds, IDs in [NUM_OBJC_KEYWORDS, NUM_OBJC_KEYWORDS+NUM_BUILTIN_TYPES) are BuiltinTypeKinds (when you subtract NUM_OBJC_KEYWORDS), and IDs in [NUM_OBJC_KEYWORDS+NUM_BUILTIN_TYPES,∞) are builtin function IDs (when you subtract NUM_OBJC_KEYWORDS+NUM_BUILTIN_TYPES).

Reading this more carefully... Does that mean that we initialize the float_t, double_t in initializeBuiltins  even if they are not used in the source code?
Also not sure how to define the NUM_BUILTIN_TYPES since I don't need to add it to TokenKinds.h? I was proposing to do something like this:
enum InterestingIdentifierKind {
#define Interesting_Identifier(X) X,
#include "clang/Basic/TokenKinds.def"

  NUM_INTERESTING_IDENTIFIERS

};
But I guess I don't need since we don't want to add additional storage. Do I understand things correctly?
