Hi Andrew,
Yeah, I'm pretty easy with regards to what we change it to.
Although if we're bikeshedding, I would prefer not using _ in the
toolchain profile name.
I'm ... optimistic ... it won't break any of my existing scripts, but
since the build system uses it as a
<toolchain profile>_<architecture>_<build target> separator, it would
be nice if we didn't risk confusion there.
(I would be totally happy with PECLANG, CLANGPE, PDBCLANG, CLANGPDB or
something along those lines.)
Regards,
Leif

This all makes sense to me now as LLVM tries to make it easy to be a drop in replacement for VC++ or GCC. So this tool chain is designed to be able to cross build a "Windows App" on a Linux or macOS. It also looks like the llvm debugger, lldb, is lagging in its support for PDB based debugging.
