My feeling stays the same. In the long term, we should try removing the CMake variable `CLANG_RESOURCE_DIR`.
Customizing the variable in a special way will make some `clang/test/Driver` tests fail, I don't know it's healthy for contributors to be aware of this yet-another configure variable for `clang/test/Driver` tests. The `CLANG_RESOURCE_DIR` users should be served by specifying `-resource-dir=` in a configuration file (https://clang.llvm.org/docs/UsersManual.html#configuration-files)
