This has TOCTOU bugs -- the path could be writable at the point of
your check, but at the point which actually attempts to create a file
on that path can still fail. I think the correct way to handle this is
to handle the failure at the point of using the path, not attempting
to fail early.
Thanks! IIUC a good place to do this would be clang::HeaderSearch::getModuleCachePath <http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1HeaderSearch.html#a99ea51bfb4bb5f4742de10c8dfde0540> ? Would that be acceptable?
