Have you considered using bugpoint for your codegen debugging needs?

Sweet!

I've applied your gccld patch.  

For the isExecutable patch, you check to see if it's a file first before
calling access(), but that precludes that function being used on a
directory (which is a valid sys::Path object and could be queried for
being executable), so I think it's unnecessary.  I also applied your
patch to ignore dangling symlinks.

Finally, I applied your patch to ArchiveWriter with minor modifications
-- please see llvm-commits or the web archive.

Sure.  Patches are accepted, but please separate formatting changes from
functionality changes into different patches.

Thanks again!
