[cfe-dev] RFC: Clang test runner changes

[John Thompson]

Thanks for the info.

Question:  I made a change and three tests are failing, but I can't find any
sort of log file or message that tells me what the errors were.  Is there
one in the test tree somewhere?
Of course I can manually run the compile, but it would be nice to have quick
access to it after running the tests.  A mention of it in the hacking Clang
web page would be good too.
