The test itself passes for `arm-pc-win32` and `x86_64-pc-win32` on my machine. 
So in this sense it doesn't fail.
However, the feature of this patch doesn't cover the OS part of the triple: 
currently because of `mprotect` and other Linux-only code, XRay is only 
supported on Linux. However, clang (also with this patch) doesn't check for 
Linux target, and on non-Linux machines either LLVM backend will emit an error 
later (saying that XRay is not supported on Thumb - this happens because 
Windows is Thumb-only for ARM target), or I expect linker errors because code 
generation on Windows references some API of compiler-rt, which doesn't get 
compiled on Windows, even if it's x86_64.

Is there any advantage over `const char* const` here?

It returns `StringRef`. `.str()` would construct a `std::string`, which seems 
unnecessary.  Of course this piece is not performance-critical, but why not to 
just use `operator+=` taking as the argument `const char* const`?

Done.
