Hi Venkat,
It is known failure. This selftest was added recently. We are working on it to
fix this. Will post the fix for this selftest separately.

This too, with llvm-19 the failure is known to us, where llvm doesn't have support for
may_goto insn https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/0e0bfacff71859d1f9212205f8f873d47029d3fb.
Though, there is else condition which is envoked incase llvm doesn't have support for may_goto insn,
which we are looking into.
Since llvm-20 has support for may_goto, we are not seeing this failure there(the selftest passes).
So we are planning to fix this in separate patch for llvm-19 for now.
