The failures I was seeing were due to bugs uncovered by r57748,
which isn't in the release branch.  But the bugs themselves are
present in the release branch, and they could theoretically be
causing problems. A quick way to test this would be to run lli
with -relocation-model=pic to see if that hides the failures. If
so, it's likely that this fix is relevant.
