Me too, but isn't this PR a different idea? This is about using clang with 
MSVC/Win SDK turned into a Unix-style sysroot, which seems like a much narrower 
use case.

I think it would be  better if the driver could work with the MSVC/SDK as-is, 
rather than forcing the user to change the SDK into a form that the driver 
likes (even if it's a "standard" form in the sense that other sysroots use it). 
That would probably require more work, such as supporting case-insensitive 
includes, but seems like it would be much user friendlier.

But I won't block this if there's otherwise strong support for it.
