If it's not required, it may be better to leave it in. Otherwise, someone from Apple should say whether that is ok (testing archives is only really interesting on fruity platforms).

It looks like we have only one test on llvm.org (+ one additional test in the Swift fork) that's using this. My vote is to just remove this together with the `ARCHIVE_C_SOURCES`, `ARCHIVE_CXX_SOURCES`, `ARCHIVE_OBJC_SOURCES` and `ARCHIVE_OBJCXX_SOURCES` and inline it in that one test.
