My guess would be that your include paths are not configured correctly (so
that external_lib.h is not being found, or perhaps the wrong version of
that file is found), and you don't have a diagnostics renderer hooked up,
so the error message for "external_lib::MyClass" being unknown is not
printed anywhere; the BuiltinType you're seeing is probably being created
by error recovery. You can call qualType.dump() to check what type you were
given.
