[LLVMdev] A problem on returning value for functions

It's probably being eliminated as dead code. You want to make sure
that during ISelLowering your RET instruction has %R0 as one of its
operands (check in the -view-isel-dags step).

That's the most likely cause anyway. If not, posting the DAG might
help, or the output of "llc -debug" on an equivalent .ll file.

Cheers.
