<pre>I'm not sure whether this is a documentation or an llvm IR parser bug.
In llvm 3.5, the "fnty" of a call instruction in LLVM IR (if specified) is a
function pointer type and must end in a "*".
In llvm 3.7, the "fnty" of a call instruction in LLVM IR (if specified) appears
to be a plain "function" type and must not end in a "*".
Example:
Accepted by LLVM 3.5:
%5 = call i32 (i32)* @test(i32 %4)
Accepted by LLVM 3.7:
%5 = call i32 (i32) @test(i32 %4)
The documentation both for LLVM 3.5 and 3.7 says the "fnty*" syntax is the
correct one. I don't know with which LLVM version exactly this changed.</pre>
