Compiler Crash

I am having a lot of trouble keeping the compiler from crashing.

It's impossible to optimize any code, when most changes cause

the compiler to crash.  In one case i%9 causes a crash, but i+9

does not.  i = i - (i/9)*9 also causes a segmentation fault.  In the

end I had to use an if statement to get around this.  i%9 works

fine if I rearrange other portions of the code.  I was not able to

produce a test case for the above problem, but do have one for

another crash case.  See below.

Setup:

Debian Wheezy

4 HD-7970 GPUs.

amdcodexl_1.3.3487-1_amd64.deb

amd-catalyst-13.11-beta-v9.4-linux-x86.x86_64.run.zip

AMD-APP-SDK-v2.9-lnx64.tgz

AMD_CodeXL_Linux_x86_64_1.3.3487.tar.gz

Kernels:

Compiling kernels using CodeXL in analyze mode. Don't suppose

a command line compiler exists?

This kernel crashes the compiler.

__kernel void Crash(__global unsigned int *g_msw,   __global unsigned int *g_lsw)

{

  size_t g_work_id = get_global_id(0);

  int loop_cnt = 1<<16; 

  unsigned long first = g_msw[g_work_id];

  first = (first<<32)+g_lsw[g_work_id];

  unsigned long last = first+loop_cnt-1;

  for(unsigned long k=first; k<=last; k++)

  {

    for(int n=0; n<8; n++)

    {

    }

  } 

}

Error message:

LLVM ERROR: Cannot select: 0x7f431808a1b0: i32 = setcc 0x7f43181074a0, 0x7f43180891a0, 0x7f4318089fb0 [ORD=14] [ID=29]

This kernel compiles.
