Comment at: test/Transforms/InstCombine/fabs.ll:16
 ; CHECK-NEXT: %mul = fmul float %x, %x
-; CHECK-NEXT: %fabsf = tail call float @fabsf(float %mul)
+; CHECK-NEXT: %fabsf = call float @llvm.fabs.f32(float %mul)
 ; CHECK-NEXT: ret float %fabsf

I thought the intent there was to not recognize fabsf as a special builtin function since it isn't available, i.e. fabsf could be a user function
