Comment (by kencu):

 Upstream seems to rarely understand the nuances between LLVM-clang
 compiler capabilities and Xcode versions.

 After all -- why required a certain Xcode version? clang capability? We
 cover that easily with newer compilers. Certain system feature?
 LegacySupport supplies almost anything we need. Specific MacOSX SDK
 feature -- this might be an issue -- but often we can use a newer SDK, or
 work around it with a bit of minor {{{#ifdef}}}ing.

 There are really only very rare reasons a certain Xcode version might be
 needed -- it's usually some combination of the above, and a Pull Request
 that is accepted, submitted by someone who often doesn't understand the
 actual problem quite like we might, judging by the PRs I've seen accepted.
