1) Rename the new builtin to __builtin_clear_cache (char *beg , char *end), and have it call the function in libgcc if there is not an inline expansion for it?

(And use libgcc's prototype). This would be the cleanest.

This, plus, try to see how __clear_cache could use the definition of the builtin.
