My clang self-hosted build (Release+Asserts on Release+Asserts, Linux
x86_64) fails with:

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/jay/llvm/objdir-self/tools/opt'
llvm[2]: Compiling GraphPrinters.cpp for Debug+Asserts build
clang: /home/jay/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk/include/llvm/Support/Casting.h:194:
typename llvm::cast_retty<To, From>::ret_type llvm::cast(const Y&)
[with X = llvm::FunctionType, Y = llvm::Type*, typename
llvm::cast_retty<To, From>::ret_type = llvm::FunctionType*]: Assertion
`isa<X>(Val) && "cast<Ty>() argument of incompatible type!"' failed.

This is one of the cases that was giving me grief when I was working
on the Clang bits! Here's a small C testcase:

$ cat foo.c
struct S;
extern struct T {
  struct S (*p)(void);
} t;
struct S { int i; };
void g(void) {
  t.p();
}
$ clang -cc1 -emit-llvm foo.c
clang: /home/jay/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk/include/llvm/Support/Casting.h:194:
typename llvm::cast_retty<To, From>::ret_type llvm::cast(const Y&)
[with X = llvm::FunctionType, Y = llvm::Type*, typename
llvm::cast_retty<To, From>::ret_type = llvm::FunctionType*]: Assertion
`isa<X>(Val) && "cast<Ty>() argument of incompatible type!"' failed.
