[llvm] r246352 - Revert r246350, "The host and default target triples do not need to match for "native""

[Robinson, Paul via llvm-commits]

See my comments in D12454.  I think we do want both predicates: native environment, and native architecture.
It looks like "native" was always intended to mean "native environment" so for Mehdi's needs we should invent a new feature and leave "native" as it was.

Seems I forgot to update comments in r193459.
I assume "native" means "targeting for native environment, (not architecture)"
I am afraid if we, each other, were misunderstanding "native".

If "native" might be "native architecture", I would have to introduce a yet another feature like "jit".

FYI, I am reverting your r243960 in my local build tree.

Please elaborate how it impacts the tests.

This needs to be better documented in the code itself as well.


Thanks,
