Cool.  No idea why kfreebsd is on that list, but that's not really a
postgres relevan concern...

Hm, that sounds like a proper serious LLVM bug. If it can't read bitcode
files it wrote, something is seriously wrong.

Hm. Is there any chance to get a backtrace for this one?  This could,
although I think less likely so, also be a postgres issue
(e.g. generating code for the wrong microarch).

Ok.
