[LLVMdev] building llvm head on ubuntu with glibc-2.3.6

Hi Anton,

I have only one thought on the problem below. The line of code where
glibc detects the memory corruption is not the line of code where the
bug occurs. It occurred sometime before that. I.e. memory got corrupted
at some point and it isn't reported until the next malloc call. You
might be able to find it by code inspection if there isn't much code
between this malloc and the (dynamically) previous one. If that doesn't
bear any fruit, please run tblgen under valgrind and find out exactly
where the memory corruption occurs. Feel free to open a problem report
on this at http://llvm.org/bugs/

Thanks,

Reid.
