        <pre>The code at lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/LegalizeTypes.cpp:1031 seems to have
issues if the element size is less than a full byte (e.g., processing a "i1"),
as EltSize will truncate to 0 and then the assertion will fail.  Allowing the
assertion to be ignored if EltSize == 0 seems to fix this issue, but it looks
like something that needs more review:


  // Calculate the element offset and add it to the pointer.
  unsigned EltSize = EltVT.getSizeInBits() / 8; // FIXME: should be ABI size.
  if (EltSize)
  {
    assert(EltSize * 8 == EltVT.getSizeInBits() &&
         "Converting bits to bytes lost precision");
  }</pre>
