 Let's figure out whether this is a bug in GHC or LLVM before we change any
 variables like the version of LLVM. I think LLVM 3.5 won't work with GHC
 7.8 anyways. (Ben?)

 Yes, the -ddump-cmm output would still be useful. If you still have your
 built ghc tree, then you can follow the steps I listed above, skipping the
 first step. Thanks!
