Thanks Chris,

A big odd user of RT is Android, and they're having a lot of trouble
cross-compiling, so they ended up creating their own build system.

I'm copying Steve that has had more than his share of problems, maybe
a sync on how we both want to compile RT wouldn't hurt.

My goal is to get Android compiling RT together with Clang in the
exact same way we do, so we only need to maintain one toolchain.

cheers,
