The /nostdlib change was there to ensure that the System.dll assembly we
build could run in our runtime, and you would get a compile error if it
started using types in the ms assembly. This is essential to keep it
self-hosting as it needs to be.
I suggest we add a different build target that doesn't use /nostdlib for
use with corcompare.
