[LLVMdev] Segmentation fault - Kaleidoscope

[Paul Melis]

FWIW, I'm also suddenly experiencing segfaults in code that used to work
a few days ago (I'm using svn). This may be unrelated to the problem
described below, but perhaps it's the same thing.

In my case it seems that creating an ExecutionEngine has changed. I used
to do

    Module* Mod = makeLLVMModule();      // basically create a gcd function
    verifyModule(*Mod, PrintMessageAction);

    ExecutionEngine *EE;
    EE = ExecutionEngine::create(Mod);

but I now get 0x0 for EE. The compile command I'm using is

g++ -O3 -I ~/llvm/include/ -L ~/llvm bug.cpp `llvm-config --cxxflags
--ldflags --libs core jit native` -o bug

I noticed something very recently changed w.r.t. the way LLVM's
libraries are built (no more .o files). Could this have something to
with it?

Regards,
Paul
