Revert r149083 which is not the direction we're going in the Clang
driver based on discussions with Doug Gregor. There are several issues: 1) The patch was not reviewed prior to commit and there were review comments. 2) The design of the functionality (triple-prefixed tool invocation) isn't the design we want for Clang going forward: it focuses on the "user triple" rather than on the "toolchain triple", and forces that bit of state into the API of every single toolchain instead of handling it automatically in the common base classes. 3) The tests provided are not stable. They fail on a few Linux variants (Gentoo among them) and on mingw32 and some other environments. I *am* interested in the Clang driver being able to invoke triple-prefixed tools, but we need to design that feature the right way. This patch just extends the previous hack without fixing the underlying problems with it. I'm working on a new design for this that I will mail for review by tomorrow. I am aware that this removes functionality that NetBSD relies on, but this is ToT, not a release. This functionality hasn't been properly designed, implemented, and tested yet. We can't "regress" until we get something that really works, both with the immediate use cases and with long term maintenance of the Clang driver. For reference, the original commit log: Keep track of the original target the user specified before normalization. This used to be captured in DefaultTargetTriple and is used for the (optional) $triple-$tool lookup for cross-compilation. Do this properly by making it an attribute of the toolchain and use it in combination with the computed triple as index for the toolchain lookup. llvm-svn: 149337
