We can still use `-nostdlib++` when LLVM libc isn't being used used, but a lot of this logic will need to be refactored to support the new use case. With that in mind, I'm fine with change as an interim solution.

The reason is matching the behavior of GCC, but given that I don't think we can change the current semantics.
