           Summary: The return value of
                    llvm::sys::DynamicLibrary::LoadLibraryPermanently is
                    counter-intuitive
           Product: libraries
           Version: trunk
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: System Library

The (boolean) return value of llvm::sys::DynamicLibrary::LoadLibraryPermanently
is counter-intuitive. From the documentation:

"This returns false on success or returns true and fills in *ErrMsg on
failure."

Although it behaves as documented and is used in 2 places accordingly, it's a
bit.. ah.. unexpected!
