I missed responding to the "writeup" part earlier. But, I am not sure what I 
should be writing about. I feel that there is some confusion that this option 
can be used to switch between libcs. As I said in the earlier reply, the idea 
is not to provide a way to switch between libcs. Rather, the goal is to provide 
a way to use LLVM libc along with the system libc with the effect that LLVM 
libc symbols will be preferred by the linker over the system libc symbols.
