[LLVMdev] DW_AT_location not getting generated for local variables

I figured out my previous problem with DIBuilder. However, now I can't seem
to get the compiler to emit location information for local variables.
Here's how my IR looks:

---
define i32 @"\01_main"() {
init:
  %exception1 = alloca i8*
  %0 = alloca i32
  %"bar:Int32" = alloca i32
  %1 = alloca i32
  %2 = alloca i32*
  br label %code

code:                                             ; preds = %init
  call void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata !{i32* %"bar:Int32"}, metadata !13)
  store i32 1, i32* %"bar:Int32", !dbg !16
  store i32 1, i32* %1, !dbg !17
  %3 = load i32* %"bar:Int32", !dbg !17
  %4 = load i32* %1, !dbg !17
  %5 = add i32 %3, %4, !dbg !17
  store i32 %5, i32* %"bar:Int32", !dbg !17
  store i32* %"bar:Int32", i32** %2, !dbg !18
  %6 = load i32** %2, !dbg !18
  %7 = load i32* %6, !dbg !18
  store i32 %7, i32* %0, !dbg !18
  br label %return, !dbg !18

return:                                           ; preds = %code
  %8 = load i32* %0
  ret i32 %8

exception:                                        ; No predecessors!
  unreachable
}

declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata, metadata) nounwind readnone

!llvm.dbg.cu = !{!0}

!0 = metadata !{i32 720913, i32 0, i32 49572, metadata !"foo.clay",

true, i32 0, i32 0, i32 0, i32 0, i1 false, i32 ()* @"\01_main", null,
null, metadata !11} ; [ DW_TAG_subprogram ]
!6 = metadata !{i32 720953, null, metadata !"__main__", metadata !7, i32 1}
; [ DW_TAG_namespace ]
!7 = metadata !{i32 720937, metadata !"foo.clay", metadata !"", null} ; [
DW_TAG_file_type ]
!8 = metadata !{i32 720917, i32 0, metadata !"", i32 0, i32 0, i64 0, i64

!14 = metadata !{i32 720907, metadata !15, i32 1, i32 1, metadata !7, i32
1} ; [ DW_TAG_lexical_block ]
!15 = metadata !{i32 720907, metadata !5, i32 1, i32 1, metadata !7, i32 0}
; [ DW_TAG_lexical_block ]
!16 = metadata !{i32 2, i32 2, metadata !14, null}
!17 = metadata !{i32 3, i32 3, metadata !14, null}
!18 = metadata !{i32 4, i32 4, metadata !14, null}

And this is what dwarfdump on the compiled object file shows. The
TAG_variable entry for 'bar' is missing its AT_location.

Am I using llvm.dbg.declare correctly? Is there something missing in my
metadata?
