<li>If you intend to work on Clang C++ support, you may need to tell it how
- to find your C++ standard library headers. If Clang cannot find your
- system libstdc++ headers, please follow these instructions:
- <ul>
- <li>'<tt>gcc -v -x c++ /dev/null -fsyntax-only</tt>' to get the
- path.</li>
- <li>Look for the comment "FIXME: temporary hack:
- hard-coded paths" in <tt>clang/lib/Frontend/InitHeaderSearch.cpp</tt> and
- change the lines below to include that path.</li>
- </ul>
+ to find your C++ standard library headers. In general, Clang will detect
+ the best version of libstdc++ headers available and use them - it will
+ look both for system installations of libstdc++ as well as installations
+ adjacent to Clang itself. If your configuration fits neither of these
+ scenarios, you can use the <tt>--with-gcc-toolchain</tt> configure option
+ to tell Clang where the gcc containing the desired libstdc++ is installed.
