Andrew, which compiler invocations prompted you to copy these files over?

It looks like some of the logic in SourceKit's build scripts is tripping up.

Argyrios has done a lot of work on SourceKit, maybe he'll be able to spot the issue.

The problem causing this is that we have a hacked up CMake build process that generates multiple cross-targeted binaries from a single build configuration. I believe that compiler-rt's built-in hacky cross-targeting is tripping over however swift is supporting cross-targeting, and it is falling over.
