During 12.0.0-rc1 test builds on FreeBSD, I encountered this unittest failure, which turned out to be caused by recent libc++ changes:

  FAILED: tools/clang/bindings/python/tests/CMakeFiles/check-clang-python
  cd /home/dim/llvm/12.0.0/llvm-project/clang/bindings/python && /usr/local/bin/cmake -E env CLANG_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/dim/obj/llvmorg-12.0.0-rc1-2-gdf959fc2eb7e-1/lib /usr/local/bin/python3.7 -m unittest discover
  EEEEEEEE

The 'EEEEEEEE' signifies 8 errors, which become more clear if "unittest discover" is run with the -f (fail immediately) and -v (verbose) options:

  FAILED (errors=1)

It turns out that libc++.so.1 now depends on the symbol '_ZnamSt11align_val_t', which is 'operator new [](unsigned long, std::align_val_t)'. Embarassingly, libc++.so.1 has always depended on this C++17 specific variant of operator new. But FreeBSD's C++ ABI library, libcxxrt, has never supported this variant!

Previously, this never was a problem, because libc++ provided its own weak definitions of these operators. But recently the define _LIBCPP_DISABLE_NEW_DELETE_DEFINITIONS was toggled to on by default, which disables those definitions. This happened in 9b40ee8eb0c194f4b2787801ac6f9ef8fc1b8f46 ("[libc++] Define new/delete in libc++abi only by default") by Louis Dionne.

While this is reasonable for the libc++abi situation, where it might lead to circular dependencies, I would like to turn the definitions on again in case libcxxrt is used for the C++ ABI, such as on FreeBSD.

If you think this is a reasonable approach, I will create a review for it. Otherwise, I will have to patch the test-release.sh script to pass -DLIBCXX_ENABLE_NEW_DELETE_DEFINITIONS=ON to the CMake command line on FreeBSD.
