Repro case

I was experimenting with long doubles on x64 (80 bits which force x87
instructions). Clang seems to generate corrupt DWARF expressions. For this:

  long double ld = 2.38;
  ld += argc;

(see attached source file), it produces this DWARF entry:

  DW_TAG_variable
    DW_AT_location      (0x0000005a
      [0x0000000000201714,  0x0000000000201722): DW_OP_constu
0x9851eb851eb85000, DW_OP_stack_value, DW_OP_piece 0x8, DW_OP_constu 0x4000,
DW_OP_stack_value, DW_OP_bit_piece 0x10 0x40, DW_OP_stack_value)
    DW_AT_name  ("ld")
    DW_AT_decl_file     ("float.cc")
    DW_AT_decl_line     (4)
    DW_AT_type  (0x00000090 "long double")

This expression makes no sense. It seems to be three different ones
concatenated together, as the three DW_OP_stack_value instructions should each
indicate the end of the expression.

Additionally this variable should have two distinct values while these symbols
only indicate one.

In that expression, I used "argc" to force it to not optimize the math.
Removing that generates a reasonable looking constant value:

  DW_TAG_variable
    DW_AT_const_value   (<0x0a> 00 50 b8 1e 85 eb 51 98 00 40 )
    DW_AT_name  ("ld")
    DW_AT_decl_file     ("float.cc")
    DW_AT_decl_line     (4)
    DW_AT_type  (0x00000097 "long double")

If the type is changed to a "double", the DWARF is reasonable, showing a
constant value and then the result of the math operation in a register:

  DW_TAG_variable
    DW_AT_location      (0x00000046
      [0x0000000000201711,  0x000000000020171d): DW_OP_constu
0x40030a3d70a3d70a, DW_OP_stack_value
      [0x000000000020171d,  0x0000000000201729): DW_OP_reg17 XMM0)
    DW_AT_name  ("ld")
    DW_AT_decl_file     ("float.cc")
    DW_AT_decl_line     (4)
    DW_AT_type  (0x0000002a "double")
