I realize they are not identical but I have successfully used this technique multiple times to reproduce issues users experienced with older versions of Xcode clang and to develop fixes.


Also I would like for llvm-3.2 to exist on Mavericks because my port pure requires it; pure does not work properly on OS X when using llvm-3.3 and after discussion with the developer we decided to leave MacPorts pure at llvm-3.2.

In the last message of the thread, the developer of pure declared this to be “a genuine incompatibility between the x86 assembler backend in LLVM 3.3 and at least some Xcode versions, and no fix is known right now.”
