$ clang --version
clang version 6.0.0 (tags/RELEASE_600/final)
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir:
/home/ags/gcc-linaro-7.2.1-2017.11-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin

I use a symlink to clang in my cross compiler toolchain, that is why
InstalledDir points to a GCC toolchain.
