I'm unsure whether the libc++ build can depend on the existence of the LLVM toolchain. If it does, you could simply use llvm-lib /out:libc++.a libc++.a /path/to/libsynchronization.a.

Otherwise, you could simply append the libc++ object files to a local copy of libsynchronization.a and rename it to libc++.a, though I'm unsure how to do this in an elegant way within CMake. If I recall correctly, libc++ originally had some infra that made it easy to merge static libraries, but for some reason it seems to have disappeared later on.
