Extended Description

On linux/ppc llvm 2.9 (using clang) generates assembler in darwin style that gnu as does not accept. A simple testcase with llvm and gcc output is attached.

It seems to be a simple case of ha16(x) versus x@ha and lo16(x) versus x@l where the formers are darwin style and latters gnu style. Using corresponding #defines and preprocessing clang's assembler will enable us to make a functioning program.

$ clang -v

gcc -std=c99 -S -o simple_gcc.s simple.c

clang -std=c99 -S -o simple_clang.s simple.c
