What do you mean by "active"?

Unlike Objective-C and C++, Flang's frontend is implemented in a 
different sub-project. Also, AFAIK, there's no concept of 
active/inactive frontend in the compiler driver.

Perhaps you meant "Clang, the frontend and the frontend driver"? I'm 
referring to "Clang, the compiler driver" :) I should've made that 
clearer first time round.
