--- Comment #11 from Jack Howarth <howarth.at.gcc at gmail dot com> ---
Just a reminder that clang solves finding the position of the SDK via xcrun and
SDKROOT.

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=87243

The compiler stub programs that users run execute the real clang compilers by
calling them via the xcrun program which sets the SDKROOT, among other
environmental variables, for the clang compiler to use.

ENVIRONMENT
       CPATH
          This   environment   variable   is  modified  by  xcrun  to  include
          /usr/local/include when an explicit SDK is not requested  via  envi-
          ronment variable nor command line argument and neither -nostdinc nor
          -nostdsysteminc are present.

       DEVELOPER_DIR
          Overrides the active developer directory. When DEVELOPER_DIR is set,
          its  value  will be used instead of the system-wide active developer
          directory.

       LIBRARY_PATH
          This  environment  variable  is  modified  by   xcrun   to   include
          /usr/local/lib when an explicit SDK is not requested via environment
          variable nor command line argument and -Z is not being passed to the
          linker.

       SDKROOT
          Specifies  the  default  SDK  to be used when looking up tools (some
          tools may have SDK specific versions).

          This environment variable is also set by xcrun to  be  the  absolute
          path  to  the  user  provided  SDK  (either via SDKROOT or the --sdk
          option), when it is used to invoke a normal  developer  tool  (build
          tools like xcodebuild or make are exempt from this behavior).

          For example, if xcrun is used to invoke clang via:
              xcrun --sdk macosx clang test.c

          then xcrun will provide the full path to the macosx SDK in the envi-
          ronment variable SDKROOT. That in turn will be used by  clang(1)  to
          automatically select that SDK when compiling the test.c file.

       TOOLCHAINS
          Specifies  the  default  toolchain  to be used when looking up tools
          (for tools which are toolchain specific).
