Doh, I should have thought about that. Still, it would be more elegant to handle that situation with something like `universal_variant force` (admitting that the logic isn't perfect).

I suppose pre-10.11 installs should still be able to cross-compile for arm64, with the right compiler and libraries installed, no?
(Link step included btw, as all normally built clang compilers are cross-compilers so a new-enough clang should be able to generate the correct object code for Apple silicon.)
