If you build the JIT as an x86-64 application, it can't run code compiled with -m32.  For example, on my system:

$ file `which lli`
/Users/sabre/llvm/Debug/bin/lli: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

Trying to run code built with -m32 will randomly crash in lots of different ways.  The solution to this is to rebuild (lli in this case) as an x86-32 app.
