I encountered this bug intermittently using llvm Release, but cannot  
reproduce it when using llvm Debug. But the failure occurs inside of  
llvm.

Consequently, your suggestion won't work.

Also, the build is broken on x86_64 because somehow references to  
alloca() turned into an unresolved extern.
