Can you identify the consequence(s) of the difference?

(At present Darwin relies on configuring —with-sysroot to reference the system 
SDKs, since
 there are no longer any headers installed in / on Darwin hosts)

FWIW, we (FX and I) had started collating some of the Darwin libtool changes, 
(FX has posted one
upstream aready IIRC) since we also want to land the necessary support for 
@rpath.

I wonder if this will help track divergence.

maybe  s/some/most/ ? .. 

The other issue is that we might have changes that make sense local to GCC, but 
are not
really applicable more widely,
