The mention of a bug report is confusing; it implies that there is a bug in the compiler, and there isn't in this case. This caused a downstream bug to be misfiled by an oncall-er who thought they were looking at a clang crash. Ideally, none of the produced text would imply that there's anything wrong with clang in the case that clang did not itself actually crash.
