[Bug middle-end/45273] New: [4.4/4.5/4.6 Regression] The compiler depends on the host double (-fprofile-corection only)

[pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org]

While looking into PR 45272, I noticed it depends on the host double which is
wrong, we should not depend on that.  The main reason is because different
hosts could produce slightly different results depending on the behavior of
float.

Oh Second mcf_sqrt depends on IEEE FP single precision.

Should use sreal, then?

Well, we don't have sreal_sqrt, and the approximation mcf_sqrt uses is quite
tied to the float representation, while it isn't impossible to convert it, I'd
say it isn't trivial either.  Perhaps we could use mpfr instead.

I also see SIGFPEs recently on FDO SPEC 2000.

Use mpfr in predict.c instead of sreal, and in mcf.c instead of host double

Bootstrapped&tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu. Can be queued for GCC 4.7 if
the Powers That Be agree this is the right approach.

The mcf.c parts can be posted separately for GCC 4.6 if necessary, but I
propose to close this big as WONTFIX for older releases.

Heh, with my patch (with some further changes) I get failures like this one:
../../trunk/gcc/sel-sched-ir.c:6253:1: error: caller edge frequency 38613 does
not match BB frequency 38610

Excess precision? :-)

Use mpfr in predict.c instead of sreal, and in mcf.c instead of host double

This completely untested patch shows what I'd like to do: Use mpfr instead of
sreal and host double. Comments on the approach welcome.
