[cfe-dev] clang bug? Miscompilation of array of unsigned long long

This still annoyed me, so today I dug a little deeper and tried to 
explore different compilation paths. Turns out the clang driver is 
likely at fault:

Simplified test case:
---
#include <stdio.h>

unsigned long long globalArray[] = {0xFFFFFFFD00000000uLL};

int main()
{
         unsigned long long t = 0xFFFFFFFD00000000uLL;

         printf("%016llX, %016llu\n", t, t);
         printf("%016llX, %016llu\n",
                 globalArray[0], globalArray[0]);

     return 0;
}

Compile to bitcode and execute:
 > clang -emit-llvm -o arrTest.bc -c arrTest.c
 > lli arrTest.bc
FFFFFFFD00000000, 18446744060824649728
FFFFFFFD00000000, 18446744060824649728

Huh? That correct...

Compile to assembly and execute:

 >clang -o arrTest.asm -S arrTest.c
 >clang -x assembler -o arrTest-clang arrTest.asm
 >./arrTest-clang
FFFFFFFD00000000, 18446744060824649728

Incorrect. Let's try gcc...

FFFFFFFD00000000, 18446744060824649728

Huh? That's correct again. How does the driver call subsequent steps?

The difference is in the --32 option that clang adds, but gcc doesn't.

I'm guessing this is a platform detection problem. My initial 
observation was that the compiler-rt tests fails both on FreeBSD-8.0 and 
MinGW. Both are 32-bit environments running on 64 bit processors. (BSD 
is custom build 32 bit running on a 64-bit Atom processor). I suppose 
that's unusual, so I'm wondering whether it is worth filing a bug report?
