[LLVMdev] ValueMapper question: no type mapping for GlobalValue?

[Michael Muller]

Hi all, I was looking at the ValueMapper code this morning and I notice that
it doesn't do type mapping for GlobalValues.  Is this correct?

I ask because I am seeing a case where I'm failing type assertions from
ModuleLinker::linkGlobalInits() when an array initializer references an
external global.  It looks like the external global is being mapped directly
and this causes an element type check to fail in ConstantArray::get().
Curiously, this only happens when that external global is also referenced from
within a function in the same module.
