[llvm-dev] Need help with code generation

[James Molloy via llvm-dev]

Hi Rui,

Having read that thread, I'm confused. The thread is entirely about using
LLD as a library; nowhere does it mention that segfaulting on invalid input
is allowed, required or expected. It's all about 'is exit (1) sufficient?'

Can you confirm that you're happy for LLD to crash when invoked on the
command line?
