[LLVMdev] Win64 Calling Convention problem

Unfortunately, you should. Think about differences and between
_Complex type and struct {double, double}.
>From LLVM's point of view these are same types, however many ABIs have
special rules for passing / returning _Complex,
this is possible to handle in frontend only.

Yes, default calling convention is C. But you're not using an
ABI-compliant C compiler to generate the IR.
