llvm MemDepPrinter segfault - llvm

Question

I used LLVM already existent passes with no problems till I tried to use MemDepPrinter.cpp : http://llvm.org/doxygen/MemDepPrinter_8cpp_source.html . I got the following segfault:
llvm[0]: Compiling MyMemDepPrinter.cpp for Release+Asserts build (PIC)
llvm[0]: Linking Release+Asserts Loadable Module MyMemDepPrinter.so
WARNING: You're attempting to print out a bitcode file.
This is inadvisable as it may cause display problems. If
you REALLY want to taste LLVM bitcode first-hand, you
can force output with the `-f' option.

As an update, the line problem is :
MDA.getNonLocalPointerDependency(Loc, true, LI->getParent(), NLDI);
and not the 4 arguments are the problem. All of them are defined and I can use them. I don't have the segfault if I eliminate the line.
I think the problem is defined in a comment :
FIXME: Handle atomic/volatile loads.
Please tell me how can I solve the problem (maybe put a condition to avoid atomic/volatile loads) or if the pass works fine for you and if so, how you use it.
Thank you !

Answer 1

I saw another more recent posts, so i think i is better to try the manual dependencies. It is not the first time then there are errors in open source code. I tried to run the pass and I have the same problem. The same problem with getNonLocalPointerDependency method appears also for the other instruction types, like store, not only in the place mentioned by you.
