llvm dev - Sep 2017 - llvm-link: Missing Dwarf DIE references

I saw a .o file <mypath>/DreamListViewController.o among .bc files in your
llvm-link command.
Could that be the cause of the problem?

I am experiencing an issue combining bitcode files for the purpose of generating
the combined bitcodes as a single bitcode file. I would like to have any
pointers to help me debug this or maybe it has been seen before and a fix is
either being worked on or is done.

I am using the Xcode 9.0 compiler. I believe the Swift code is 3.x. I have
reproduced this using the tot llvm-link.

The input modules are from Swift (LucidDreams) and have been compiled -O. The
problem doesn't seem to exist when they are compiled -Onone.

The llvm-link occurs without error and the subsequent compilation also seems to
go fine, but when the resultant llvm-dwarfdump -verbose -verify is run I get a
bunch of the following errors:

warning: could not find referenced DIE
    in DIE:

<mypath>/testprogram_lucidDreams/iOS_APP/DerivedData/iOS_APP/Build/Intermediates.noindex/iOS_APP.build/Debug-iphoneos/iOS_APP.build/Objects-normal/arm64/iOS_APP.bc.o:

All the errors reference DreamListViewControllerModel.swift and have todo with
inlining, but if I remove enough of the input bitcode objects from the llvm-link
the error goes away even though DreamListViewControllerModel is still included.

Here are the commands I used to generate the error (omitting the original Swift
compile):

Any insights would be appreciated. Input bitcode files are attached.

Thanks,
Jack
