[llvm-dev] Assertion `GV->use_empty() && "program cannot use initializer list"' failed

[Mike Aizatsky via llvm-dev]

I'm trying to build some chromium tests with LTO and I'm getting following
crypting assertion from the gold plugin:

FAILED: ../../third_party/llvm-build/Release+Asserts/bin/clang++

ld.gold:

/usr/local/google/home/aizatsky/src/chrome/src/third_party/llvm/lib/Linker/LinkModules.cpp:1258:
void upgradeGlobalArray(llvm::GlobalVariable*): Assertion `GV->use_empty()
&& "program cannot use initializer list"' failed.
clang-3.8: error: unable to execute command: Aborted (core dumped)

What does this assertion mean? I believe I'm use tip-of-the-tree clang and
"GNU gold (GNU Binutils 2.25) 1.11" gold plugin.
