To enable debugging we have clang compile to Mach-0 (native execution format on
a Mac). The mtoc tool is a Mach-O to PE/COFF conversion tool. It is open
sourced by Apple as part of CCTOOLS. It works like the ELF to PE/COFF
conversion code that is in the edk2 BaseTools.
I have no problem with someone checking the binary in the tree for mtoc, as it
is open sourced code.

The PLATFORM_FLAGS originated in the ARM port.
I do the maintenance to keep Xcode working. So you can send me a patch and I
can review it, test it and commit it.
I recently made a change to our internal version of the flags and I can sync
that back too. I add -fcolor-diagnostics to the compiler lines as this enabled
color diagnostic (error messages) from clang when building under the edk2.
