Comment 1 Karsten Hopp 2011-12-22 15:23:23 UTC 
raising to urgent as this prevents building mesa and that in turn blocks avahi and hundreds of other packages
Comment 2 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 2012-02-13 07:51:18 UTC 
It looks like a known bug:

http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=10969

I'm surprised today's trunk still don't have it fixed... I don't like either of the proposed solutions tho, maybe the namespace should be changed to PowerPC ?

Any llvm hacker around who could do that ?
Comment 3 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 2012-03-15 19:53:47 UTC 
You should not build Mesa with llvm enabled on PowerPC. Even with that fix, LLVM doesn't work properly and the resulting Mesa crashes. I'm working on it but the lack of spare time lately made my progress very slow.
