Usage of FunctionPass over ModulePass when creating LLVM passes - clang

Question

I've seen quite a numerous amount of examples that go over creating functions passes (e.g. Brandon Holt and Adrian Sampson), but I am curious as to the difficulty in creating a module pass to do these very similar problems. I've tried to implement a module pass to display the global variable names using this example and llvm source code to understand how you have to iterate through members.
I am using a source compiled version of LLVM, and using the example from the above links to add the pass, and then running:
$ clang -Xclang -load -Xclang build/Skeleton/libSkeletonPass.so something.c
Which then returns this gibberish. However, if I implement a functionPass and just use Auto to determine the type to be initialized it's very straight forward and works. Am I just going about printing the global variables the wrong way?
This is a pastebin of the error output from the terminal. link

I was able to figure this out after some extensive github searching. Here is the answer from which I was following a tutorial to help others who may be curious how to implement a Module Pass.
