[LLVMdev] Labels

> Why is this label unexpected?

Because a label starts a new basic block, but a call instruction is not a proper
closing instruction for the previous basic block.

The solution that I use is to insert a "br l6" instruction just after the call
instruction (effectively a no-op, but it closes the basic-block properly).

See the LLVM documentation on terminators for more information on what closes a
basic block:
 
    http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#terminators

Hope that helps,
