[LLVMdev] totally lost

[Juan Nicolas Ruiz]

shouldn't the malloc() be something like malloc(sizeof(int)*size)?

You're allocating 5 bytes, which is probably not the size of an int in
llvm (it's definitely not the size of an int in sparc), and later
you're trying to access c[1], which starts at byte 4 but is out of
bounds.
