[swift-corelibs-dev] libdispatch module on Linux

[Philippe Hausler]

I am not certain on `swift build` but for swift and swiftc it is `-Xcc -fblocks`.
 
My rule of thumb is that if any time there is something that does not meet initial expectations filing a bug is always appreciated (even if it is marked as a dup/not-to-be-fixed/etc)
