[LLVMdev] issues registering passes in osx 10.8

[Xi Wang]

Have you tried to pass --enable-shared to configure?  It works for me.

$ opt -load /usr/local/lib/LLVMHello.dylib -help | grep hello
    -hello                                     - Hello World Pass
    -hello2                                    - Hello World Pass (with getAnalysisUsage implemented)

After having compiled the LLVM source without making changes to the configuration files I am able to run the LLVM gcc and clang. But I am having some trouble using the passes. I tried loading the hello pass inside the transform directory of the LLVM object tree.
