[LLVMdev] Can I add GlobalVariable in MachineFunctionPass ?

[Micah Villmow]

Antony,
 What are you trying to accomplish in this case? I did something very similar in the AMDIL backend, but it was not the cleanest solution and you are correct it has to be do at doInitialization stage and not at runOnMachineFunction.
