Clarification - I presume it would fail when targeting MSVC, not when targeting 
mingw.

Yes, I think `-stdlib=libc++` has no effect on MSVC targets currently, and you 
have to add the include directory and lib arguments when using it - I think 
@rnk, @hans or @thakis can confirm that.

@phosek has a patch to take the option into use there too, but it's essentially 
blocked by D103947 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D103947> if I remember correctly. 
(The chain of dependencies that trigger that is a bit non-obvious, but I think 
it was the case that they build their Clang with 
`-DCLANG_DEFAULT_CXX_STDLIB=libc++`, and once that has an effect on the MSVC 
configs, a bunch of code in their build setup suddenly ends up using libc++ 
instead of MSVC STL, and there's a lot of code there that is built with 
`_HAS_EXCEPTIONS=0` - hence libc++ needing to work in that configuration.)
