struct __attribute__((packed)) G { unsigned char i; unsigned long l; };
unsigned long
foo (struct G x)
{
  return x.l;
}

fails to compile at -O1 and higher.
e.c: In function `foo':
e.c:6: error: insn does not satisfy its constraints:
(insn:HI 24 33 27 0 (set (reg/i:DI 3 3 [ <result> ])
        (mem/s:DI (plus:DI (reg:DI 9 9)
                (const_int 49 [0x31])) [4 x.l+0 S8 A8])) 326 {*movdi_internal64}
(insn_list 7 (insn_list 8 (nil)))
    (nil))
e.c:6: internal compiler error: in reload_cse_simplify_operands, at
postreload.c:378

This was fixed for 3.4 with PR rtl-optimization/13674 patch.
For this testcase though, -fnew-ra doesn't help at all.

ppc64 doesn't have STRICT_ALIGNMENT != 0 (unless -fstrict-align, but that fixes
the testcase), so I don't see how movdi_internal64 insn can refuse to handle
non-aligned loads.  SLOW_UNALIGNED_ACCESS will handle most of the cases by doing
the load in pieces, but that still doesn't mean such instructions can't be
generated.

This is basically a dup of bug 13674 anyways, if Geoff would just approve the patch this problem 
would go away.

The reason why movdi_internal64 refuses to do non unaligned loads is because the ld instruction 
needs a 4byte aligned offset which is different from what STRICT_ALIGNMENT and 
SLOW_UNALIGNED_ACCESS will provide and it would just make it slower.
