Comment:
OK fixed. Damn LLVM doesn't like this code anymore:
{{{
%a = i32 1
call ccc llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i64( i8* %x, i8* %y, i64 %z, i32 %a, i1 0)
}}}
As while the alignment (a) is constant the fact it's in a variable throws
LLVM off in 3.1. A work around for now is to run LLVM's constant
propigation pass at the very start to inline the variable. e.g do this:
{{{
$ ghc --make testcase.hs -fllvm -O2 -optlo-constprop -optlo-O3
}}}
and it should compile fine.
