[LLVMdev] Segfault when using llvm-3.6 and OpenGL at the same time on Linux (with mesa, which uses llvm-3.4)

No llvm symbols, either:

daniel at ubuntu32-dev:~/projects/omni2/cbuild$ nm -DC
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/swrast_dri.so | grep llvm
         U draw_create_no_llvm
         U draw_get_shader_param_no_llvm

I'm out of ideas now... can I somehow log the pathes of libraries loaded in
a process? Maybe I can find out whether llvm-3.4 loads some llvm-3.5
libraries or so. On the other hand, why would that only happen when
llvm-3.5 is actually used? Shouldn't it solely depend on PATH /
LD_LIBRARY_PATH which library is used?

It seems that dynamic libraries are far more complicated / far less
straight forward on Linux than I thought...
