thakis added a comment.

One consequence from this that I just realized is that linking a binary 
depending on clang stuff with (morally):

  c++ -o foo foo.o $($LLVMBUILD/bin/llvm-config --ldflags) -lclangFrontend 
-lclangDriver -lclangParse -lclangSema -lclangSerialization -lclangAnalysis 
-lclangAST -lclangEdit -lclangLex -lclangBasic $($LLVMBUILD/bin/llvm-config 
--libs) $($LLVMBUILD/bin/llvm-config --system-libs)

now fails with

  clangDriver.lib(MSVCToolChain.cpp.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external 
symbol GetFileVersionInfoSizeW referenced in
   function "private: class clang::VersionTuple __cdecl 
clang::driver::toolchains::MSVCToolChain::getMSVCVersionFromExe(vo
  id)const "

  " 
(?getMSVCVersionFromExe@MSVCToolChain@toolchains@driver@clang@@AEBA?AVVersionTuple@4@XZ)
  pptest.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 3 unresolved externals

and folks have to manually add mincore.lib to their link. `llvm-config 
--system-libs` takes care of things like this for LLVM, but we don't have a 
`clang-config` as far as I know (does anybody know why not?). So folks now have 
to manually pass more libraries than just the clang libraries. Not a big deal, 
but I figured I'd point it out.
