Maybe just: ln -fs ../include $(DESTDIR)/usr/lib/

So you compile with -ffreestanding -nostdinc?
And then add the include path returned by -print-file-name=include?

"clang -E -v - </dev/null" shows it passes "-resource-dir
/usr/bin/../lib/clang/3.3" to cc1 stage which then complains about
nonexistent directory "/usr/bin/../lib/clang/3.3/include".

So how about moving /usr/include/clang/3.3 to
/usr/lib/clang/3.3/include? That seems to be the location clang
expects and what lang/clang port uses (in /usr/local).

The path from -resource-dir is also searched by -print-file-name.

All headers from contrib/llvm/tools/clang/lib/Headers would have
to be installed there to have a complete freestanding environment,
but some of those headers would have to be patched to use the base
system header in the hosted case like the stdint.h header does:

#if __STDC_HOSTED__ && \
    defined(__has_include_next) && __has_include_next(<stdint.h>)
# include_next <stdint.h>
#else
...
#endif

In the lang/clang port files/patch-tools_clang_lib_Headers_Makefile
should be removed I think. It prevents too many useful headers from
being installed (e.g. avxintrin.h)
