It would not surprise me if the getGlobalContext() function has been 
removed.

If you're writing an LLVM pass, it is better to get a reference to the 
LLVMContext by finding the context associated with the Module that your 
pass is analyzing or transforming.  Many LLVM classes (Module, Function, 
BasicBlock, etc.) have a getContext() method that will return a 
reference to the LLVMContext to which the object belongs.  You should 
use these methods to get a reference to the context.
