This seems to be an unnecessary redirection and isn't the way
such things are handled in Nix AFAIK.
I need to patch sources any way because there are other inpure
paths in phobos too.
See the package for dmd for example:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/compilers/dmd/default.nix#L44-L65
But I see that it's a problem to directly use clang because
without wrapping there might go something wrong.
But if clang wouldn't be supported directly the FreeBSD condition
would be wrong too.
So with my current knowledge I would suggest that I open a PR to
add a condition for OSX with clang too.
