a.out left in root directory when configuring --with-toolchain-type=clang

[Magnus Ihse Bursie]

Actually, the clang issue is different. The fix for JDK-8200267 is 
solstudio only.

Martin: I cannot reproduce the behaviour with "bash configure 
--with-toolchain-type=clang 
--with-toolchain-path=/usr/lib/llvm-3.9/bin". No a.out file for me. Is 
this repeatable? Are you sure you didn't accidentally hit ctrl-c at some 
point?
