> This breaks compatibility with objdump. Please ensure that the original behavior is preserved when invoked as objdump rather than llvm-objdump.

This was discussed on the mailing list, it was decided that defaulting to a.out was not something that was worth maintaining compatibility with GNU and favored standardizing the llvm tools, ie reading from stdin on default.

FWIW, I favored defaulting to a.out when stdin is a tty and stdin when a file has been redirected in.
