[LLVMdev] linking a parser bitcode

Hello, Samuel

Ah, I've re-read the whole thread and now understand the whole situation:

1. You compiled llvm (on windows, as it seems to me) with the compiler
which does sjlj-style EH (e.g. mingw's gcc 3.4.5)
2. LLVM supports only dwarf-based EH (however, EH on windows is
currently unsupported), thus llvm-compiled libgcc does not contain any
sjlj-related routines

So, the best way to resolve the situation is:
 - Do not use EH in the code you're compiling via llvm-gcc (it won't
work until someone will feel brave to implement missed EH bits on
windows)
 - link everything with g++, not llvm-g++

Hope this will help.
