[llvm-dev] [RFC] Strategies for Bootstrapping Compiler-RT builtins

[Anton Korobeynikov via llvm-dev]

> That is not entirely correct. Only some of the builtins have dependencies on libc, and none of them should have dependencies on libc++ or libc++abi. I believe we can construct a working partial builtin library without libc, to make bootstrapping work.
It's not that the builtins depend on them, but cmake depends on them.
Requiring the full compile & link cycle effectively requires the .a /
.so . /.dylib files to be present.
