I *thought* you had mentioned that it didn't build; in that case
absolutely, I expected there to be a bug filed already. As a general
rule, nobody should *ever* mention that something is broken, without
first ensuring the bug is filed.

Looking back, I can't now see where you said that; maybe I made it up
and I only observed this failure myself. Either way, I already filed
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36378Âafter searching bugzilla
and not finding it.

Thanks.
