> @ldionne thank you for the reply. Unfortunately current behaviour makes problems for clang-tools like clang-tidy and clangd that read CDBs from compile_commands.json. They start looking headers relative to compiler path specified in CDB but it is better to use path specified in -isysroot (it is what user expects when they specify the option). What is the rationale behind ignoring -isysroot specified in command line? If user would like to use search path relative to compiler, they could just remove -isysroot and get this behaviour.
The intent was simply that if someone builds a Clang-based toolchain on Apple platforms and they include libc++ in that toolchain, the toolchain libc++ should be preferred over any system-provided libc++ we have in the SDK. So even if you use `-isysroot <SDK>` (which you need for everything like the C stdlib and other system headers), we want your custom-built toolchain libc++ headers to be preferred over the system-provided libc++ headers (in the SDK). But by default, we don't ship toolchain headers with AppleClang so we check in the toolchain, find nothing, and then fall back to the SDK.
