Thanks Henry, that will force it to choose my referenced compiler.
Still not clear whether this is intended behavior or not: is the default
toolchain-type (clang, apparently) supposed to trump an explicit tools-dir?
I.e., is this a bug, or just surprising but intentional?
I think this is intentional, but it could certainly still be discussed.
I'm surprised clang is already picked as default however. Perhaps there
is something else that's not working as intended causing this.

For JDK9, try to specify toolchain using --with-toolchain-type=gcc

As of March 18, this no longer works.

I appreciate the effort to get clang to work, but I should still be able to
pick my compiler using --with-tools-dir.
Should I report a bug?
(Note on my motivation: I'm getting build errors due to -Wformat-nonliteral.
I've heard this is a known issue, but I'd like to be able to work around it in
the mean time.)
