"This" is building the proper set of tools for the target. It is easy

The consequences today are that you build some extra tools that are
only needed to build clang when in fact you aren't really going to be
building clang. The "cost" is however long it takes to do this on the
platform you are building on. This can range from a minute or two to
tens of minutes depending on the power of your build system.
Ok, obviously I'm dense because I didn't understand an answer to my
question anywhere in there. :) So let me try again. Why are we not
optimizing for the common case, where the world is built on the system
it's going to run on, which means that WITHOUT_CLANG can easily mean
exactly that?
