Why doesn't that work for clang? Is it possible to change the way you're building clang to not use an archive member?

Otherwise, if `loadLibrary` needs to be used, I think the resolution of the library should be done relative to `System.getProperty("java.home")` and then I suppose jlink puts the library under `lib`.
