 This should be target, as it only effects powerpc-apple-darwin.
 
 In 3.4 (do not know about 3.3):
 It looks like the register that is holding the pic address is 
 overwritten in bar so when the jump happens the pic register now holds 
 the pic for bar, not for main so it prints out some garbage.
 It looks like it should save and restore it in r30 like stack register 
 is.
 A workaround in 3.4 for applications is to use -mdynamic-no-pic which 
 will get rid of the pic code.
 
 Thanks,
 Andrew Pinski
