We need to do this for the same reason we do it for ICU: msys messues
with environment variables (as suggested in build/subconfigure.py).
This change (or something like it) is needed to build with clang-cl.  Without
this change, js/src/ doesn't see a toplevel CXX=clang-cl setting, and gets
compiled with cl instead, leading to...problems.

Without this patch, a clang-cl-compiled browser crashes on startup.  With this
patch...things still crash, but at least clang-cl is getting used for the JS
source files!
