Hi Chuck,

I believe this is a bug but am unable to reproduce it with the test  
case you've provided. I should be able to see the same problem using  
llc since the code generator is going through all the same passes.  
The only difference should be the relocation model.

Please file a bug and provide us with a test case. You should be able  
to set a break point somewhere in ExecutionEngine.cpp / JIT.cpp and  
just dump out the bitcode with Module->dump() / print().
