[cfe-dev] UNREACHABLE executed! error while trying to generate PTX

I am trying to generate PTX code for 'nbody' sample program's kernel
(nbody_kernel.cu) using clang/LLVM version 3.2. The nbody CUDA program is
available in Nvidia's SDK. 

I am referring to https://github.com/jholewinski/llvm-ptx-samples project. 

Following are my commands, 

clang++ -O4 -S -I/usr/local/cuda/include -emit-llvm -target nvptx64
nbody_kernel.cu -o nbody_kernel.ll 

opt -O3 -loop-unroll -unroll-allow-partial nbody_kernel.ll -o
nbody_kernel.ll 

llc nbody_kernel.ll -o nbody_kernel.ptx 

After execution of the last command(llc) I get a UNREACHABLE executed! error
with the following stack trace 

[DEVICE-C++] nbody.kernel.cpp 
unexpected address space

I replaced the global indexes like for e.g threadIdx.x with
__builtin_ptx_read_tid_x() and others. There are no problems in generating
LLVM IR (i.e .ll). The error pops up while trying to generate PTX from the
IR using llc. 

Any pointers on what might be going on here ? Will appreciate any help in
going forward 

I have attached my program and observations in a README here. 
LLVM_PTX_nbody.tar.gz
<http://clang-developers.42468.n3.nabble.com/file/n4031020/LLVM_PTX_nbody.tar.gz>  

You can easily reproduce the problem using this.
