-// For Unix we just use `abort` from libc as it'll trigger debuggers, core
-// dumps, etc, as one might expect. On Windows, however, the best option we have
-// is the `__fastfail` intrinsics, but that's unfortunately not defined in LLVM,
-// and the `RaiseFailFastException` function isn't available until Windows 7
-// which would break compat with XP. For now just use `intrinsics::abort` which
-// will kill us with an illegal instruction, which will do a good enough job for
-// now hopefully.
