+Freestanding Builds
+-------------------
+Passing the ``-ffreestanding`` flag causes Clang to build for a freestanding
+(rather than a hosted) environment. The flag has the following effects:
+
+* the ``__STDC_HOSTED__`` predefined macro will expand to ``0``,
+* builtin functions are disabled by default (``-fno-builtins``),
+* unwind tables are disabled by default
+ (``fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -fno-unwind-tables``), and
+* allows ``main`` to be used as a regular symbol.
