This shouldn't be necessary with -fuse-ld=lld... but you need to give the 
option in the actual command rather than as a compile flag:

using clang-win : : "C:\\Program Files\\LLVM\\bin\\clang-cl.exe" 
"-fuse-ld=lld" : ... ;

It should then autodetect the above "lld-link.exe /lib" as the archiver.

Or, you could set <archiver> manually:

using clang-win : : : <archiver>"\"C:\\Program 
Files\\LLVM\\bin\\lld-link.exe\" /lib" ... ;
