This is x86_64. I have a problem where an absolute memory load define i32 @foo() { entry: %0 = load i32* inttoptr (i64 12704196 to i32*) ; <i32> [#uses=1] ret i32 %0 } generates incorrect code on LLVM 2.4: 0x7ffff6d54010: mov 0xc1d9c4(%rip),%eax # 0x7ffff79719da 0x7ffff6d54016: retq should be 0x7ffff6d54010: mov 0xc1d9c4, %eax 0x7ffff6d54016: retq
