// There's an issue with the new LLVM metadata support; an assertion fires when
// trying to generate asm for metadata globals.
//
// This pass is a workaround; it deletes the metadata LDC generates so the code
// generator doesn't see it.
// Obviously, this should only run after all passes that make use of that
// metadata or they won't work.
