Package: llvm-2.7
Version: 2.7-6
Severity: normal

The llvm-2.7 installer sets up the binfmt_misc module with the wrong magic
number.

~/Projects/llvm$ cat /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/llvm-2.7.binfmt
enabled
interpreter /usr/bin/lli-2.7
flags:
offset 0
magic 6c6c7663
~/Projects/llvm$ llvm-as-2.7 hello.ll
~/Projects/llvm$ chmod u+x hello.bc
~/Projects/llvm$ ls -l hello.bc
-rwxr--r-- 1 lenard lenard 348 Jan 19 18:15 hello.bc
~/Projects/llvm$ ./hello.bc
bash: ./hello.bc: cannot execute binary file

The correct magic number is 'BC'.

~/Projects/llvm$ hexdump -Cn 4 hello.bc
00000000  42 43 c0 de                                       |BC..|
00000004

~# update-binfmts --install llvm /usr/bin/lli-2.7 --magic 'BC'

~/Projects/llvm$ cat /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/llvm
enabled
interpreter /usr/bin/lli-2.7
flags:
offset 0
magic 4243
~/Projects/llvm$ ./hello.bc
hello world
