Hrmph. I guess it's not as harmless as I thought! Can you provide the output of llvm-config --ldflags (for the llvm-config that mesa uses) llvm-config --libdir readelf -d /path/to/r600_dri.so (or radeonsi_dri.so, not sure which one you have) ldd /path/to/r600_dri.so The latter 2 for both good and bad versions.
