-include settings.h is a gcc extension to whatever standard to $CC 
commands lines there is. I'm aware of that, but don't have a solution 
handy right now.
We have a couple of options:
1. special codepath for scan-build in the makefile (basically expanding 
settings.h into the command line again)
2. extend clang to know -include
3. pick the right set of include files in the coreboot tree so the 
entire build is covered, and include settings.h there.

1. means that there's another hack in the buildsystem, 2. means learning 
the clang codebase, 3. is quite volatile...

Oh, and there's 4. report in the clang issue tracker and wait for them 
to do it.
