Maybe add a ` # TODO: Remove once we raise the deployment target to 10.9` (or
whatever the deployment target is where clang defaults to libc++ … yup, 10.9
according to clang's source). Up to you.

-    # Tell the compiler to use libc++'s headers and the linker to link
-    # against libc++.  The latter part normally requires OS X 10.7,
-    # but we still support running on 10.6.  How does this work?  Two
-    # parts:
-    # 1. Chromium's clang doesn't error on -mmacosx-version-min=10.6
-    #    combined with -stdlib=libc++ (it normally silently produced a
-    #    binary that doesn't run on 10.6)
-    # 2. Further down, library_dirs is set to
-    #    third_party/libc++-static, which contains a static
-    #    libc++.a library.  The linker then links against that instead
-    #    of against /usr/lib/libc++.dylib when it sees the -lc++ flag
-    #    added by the driver.
-    #
-    # In component builds, just link to the system libc++.  This has
-    # the effect of making everything depend on libc++, which means
-    # component-build binaries won't run on 10.6 (no libc++ there),
-    # but for a developer-only configuration that's ok.  (We don't
-    # want to raise the deployment target yet so that official and
-    # dev builds have the same deployment target.  This affects
-    # things like which functions are considered deprecated.)
