[LLVMdev] Linking problem

[Rinaldini Julien]

I finally found the problem !

When compiling with an optimization level higher than -O0, llvm define
some functions has 'available externally' (like atoi(),...).

Those functions where available in the module when my pass ran, but were
'deleted' in the backend. So when linking, the linker missed some info !

Cheers
