I'm pretty sure the compiler-rt tests should live in the compiler-rt
project. You're right:
these tests should generally be updated in sync with the runtimes. I'm fine
with creating
a large test suite comprising all individual tool-specific test suites we
have now. I'm not
sure how we can "export" this to clang, though, and why the current
situation is bad.
