Comment(by danielcavanagh@…):

 a patch to fix this issue

 firstly, it refactors the new-pointer code to avoid querying the size of
 void and reduces duplication as a side effect

 secondly, it alters get_sizeof() to not query llvm when passed an unsized
 typed, in case this happens again. really llvm should be doing this, but
 it doesn't so we just have to deal with it
