Thanks! I think the GCC issue & response to it supports my preference
not to use GCC __builtin_*, but I would like to see them fix it. The
form with __asm__("" : ...) is semantically correct and has always
worked, but I don't see enough benefit over the current non-empty asm
to justify accepting the worse codegen from llvm getting it wrong.
Maybe we can change it at some point in the future after llvm is
fixed, but it's really no big deal.
