aprantl added a comment.

I would like to ask a general question that I (indirectly) also asked in D54731 
<https://reviews.llvm.org/D54731>: Why do we want to implement support for 
building inferiors in LIT-based tests? IMHO, if we need to support for dealing 
with specific compilers, we should implement that once in `Makefile.rules` 
(which is in a declarative domain-specific-language for describing build logic) 
and write a `dotest.py`-style test instead. I'm assuming here that we need the 
support in `Makefile.rules` anyway to support the bulk of the tests. Having 
this support in two places increases the maintenance effort and cognitive load.
