[LLVMdev] Why Is This Illegal?

[Reid Spencer]

Can anyone tell me where my blunder is in the following program? 

llvm-as reports: 

llvm-as: testit.ll:11: Can't store 'opaque *' into space of type 'opaque
*'!

Which doesn't seem to make sense to me. What is it that is illegal about
storing a pointer to opaque in a space that is of type pointer to
opaque? Is it just that you can't store pointers to opaque?

%path = internal constant [11 x sbyte] c"/some/path\00"

implementation   ; Functions:

declare opaque* %open(sbyte*)

internal int %testme(int, sbyte**) {
        %stdout = alloca opaque*
        %pathp = getelementptr [11 x sbyte]* %path, uint 0, uint 0
        %handle = call opaque* %open( sbyte* %pathp )
        store opaque* %handle, opaque* %stdout                    ; This
is line 11
}
