          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: llvm-gcc
        AssignedTo: unassignedbugs at nondot.org

This commandline:

-mtune=generic -auxbase 2007-05-08-PCH -w -o /tmp/ccAMTp4m.s --output-pch=

triggers a valgrind notice:

which doesn't have a particularly useful stacktrace in gdb either:
