+          Don't call `clang` directly, use the wrapper scripts instead since they properly pass
+          arguments required to link the application using the right API level libraries.
+          Using the script also makes it certain that we're not invoking a random `clang` in
+          from the system but rather the NDK one.
+
+          Also, we cannot use $(_NdkBinDir) here because, on Windows, the `Exec` task will get
+          confused by the forward slash in the path (even though it's a valid path separator
+          character on Windows) and signal the following error:
+
+            SetupOSSpecificProps:
+              where /Q "C:\Android\android-sdk\ndk\29.0.14206865\toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/windows-x86_64/bin/clang++"
+            1>EXEC : error : Invalid pattern is specified in "path:pattern".
+            The command "where /Q "C:\Android\android-sdk\ndk\29.0.14206865\toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/windows-x86_64/bin/clang++"" exited with code 2.
+
+          This could be fixed by making sure $(_NdkBinDir) path is fixed-up to use the canonical
+          form of path separation for the host OS, but it's simpler to just use the NDK-specific
+          compiler/linker wrapper script name.
+
+          Also, do NOT use `clang++` here because it will link the dynamic libc++ library into the
+          application. If, for some reason, `clang++` has to be used, `<LinkerArgs>` need to be
+          added to pass `-nostdlib` to it.
