        <pre># Overview:

clang-format crashed with a segfault + stack dump instead of reporting an
error.

# Steps to Reproduce:

I tried to run

    clang-format-13 -i myfile.h

on a file that (not to my knowledge) had file mode 555 (read and execute only).

# Actual Results

I got this output:

    PLEASE submit a bug report to <a href="https://bugs.llvm.org/">https://bugs.llvm.org/</a> and include the crash
backtrace.
    Stack dump:
    0.      Program arguments: clang-format-13 -i
undocumentedSrc/standard_hal/stm32f4xx_hal_i2c.h
    Stack dump without symbol names (ensure you have llvm-symbolizer in your
PATH or set the environment var `LLVM_SYMBOLIZER_PATH` to point to it):

    Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This raw stack dump error message is not clear, and it took me a long time to
figure out that this was a permissions issue.

# Expected Results

I should have gotten an error message saying something like "permission denied
for writing file myfile.h"

# Date and Hardware

Feb. 8, 2021 on Windows Subsystem for Linux, Windows 10</pre>
