Hello Ivan,

nice to see someone was already on it, bummer it was not sorted out.

Apart from reverting the offending change, one could consider going a
step further and making clang statically linked in the first place.

This used to be trivially achievable prior to:

commit 77f6be448408eda1a31b1c98576e6c6bebf6ea6e

    retire SHARED_TOOLCHAIN knob

    Toolchain components were historically statically linked.  They became
    normal dynamically linked executables in commit 6ab18ea64d19.  There is
    no need to keep a special case build option for the toolchain; users who
    want statically linked toolchain (or any other) components can use the
    existing NO_SHARED knob.

I don't know how plug it it now, hopefully the commit is either
trivially revertable on 14.3 or that NO_SHARED thing is easy to plug
in for the compiler.

That is to say, if you have time, can you please benchmark a
statically linked clang vs clang which merely reverting the libprivate
change? Should be a small speed up on top.
