<pre>LLVM 12, release candidate 2 (4918a3d138b907a571f496661b5367e090e1e8bb)
# Steps to reproduce:
git clone <a href="https://github.com/ziglang/zig">https://github.com/ziglang/zig</a>
git checkout llvm12
# At time of reporting, the current latest commit in this branch is

mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$PATH_TO_YOUR_LLVM12_PREFIX"
make
./zig test ../test/stage1/behavior.zig -target i386-linux -I ../test
# Expected output
Test [967/997] behavior.vector.test "vector shift operators"...SKIP
996 passed; 1 skipped.
# Actual output
<inline asm>:1:3: error: ambiguous instructions require an explicit suffix
(could be 'pushw', or 'pushl')
push -28(%ebp)

LLVM ERROR: Error parsing inline asm
Aborted (core dumped)
# More details
There is no inline assembly in zig that has `push -28(%ebp)` in it. If you grep
for `push -28` there are no results. Furthermore, I tried dumping the LLVM IR
module, and compiling it with llc, and it compiled fine. The LLVM IR module
does not have that inline assembly in it.
Another problem here is that LLVM is calling abort():

This is not OK; LLVM is a library that needs to report errors to the
application, which has its own error handling mechanism. LLVM is a library that
already has an error handling mechanism; writing directly to stderr and calling
abort() is a serious bug.
This is a regression from LLVM 11, where the actual behavior and expected
behavior match.</pre>
