Looks good with a slightly relaxed comment.
================
Comment at: lib/Support/ErrorHandling.cpp:74-77
@@ +73,6 @@
+ {
+ // The LLVM error handler is likely to call exit(), which should not be done
+ // under a mutex (some mutex implementations exhibit undefined behavior if
+ // destroyed while acquired). So the mutex is acquired only while reading
+ // the error handler.
+ llvm::MutexGuard Lock(ErrorHandlerMutex);
----------------
This comment is a bit too specific IMO. It is never a good idea to call a user provided callback while holding a mutex.
