[LLVMdev] Minor typo in source file ObjectFile.h

[Mikael Lyngvig]

Yes, you're absolutely right.

But the "problem" is that in Danish, my native language, zero is spelled
and pronounced "nul".  So when I saw "0ULL", I immediately jumped up the
chair, forgetting my brain somewhere, and thought: "Wow, there's somebody
who meant to write NULL."  I thought the 0ULL was a misspelling of NULL.
(~NULL is not such a fortunate construct.)

I am deeply ashamed of myself for reporting this bogus error and I plan to
be much more cautious in the future.


Cheers,
Mikael
