[Bug tree-optimization/27800] New: extra temprorary created when gimplifying return

[dann at godzilla dot ics dot uci dot edu]

One would think that the temporaries created when gimplifying the following
2 functions would be the same:

void hhh (int a, int b, int c){ bar (a?b:c); }
int iii (int a, int b, int c){ return (a?b:c); }

But they are not:

hhh (a, b, c)
{
  int iftmp.0;
  if (a != 0)
    {
      iftmp.0 = b;
    }
  else
    {
      iftmp.0 = c;
    }
  bar (iftmp.0);
}

This one is fine. 
But this one:

iii (a, b, c)
{
  int D.2128;
  int iftmp.1;
  if (a != 0)
    {
      iftmp.1 = b;
    }
  else
    {
      iftmp.1 = c;
    }
  D.2128 = iftmp.1;
  return D.2128;
}
creates an extra temporary for the return expression. It would be more memory
efficient if it would just use "iftmp.1" as the first function does.

An even simpler example which occurs quite frequently in programs:

int jjj (int a){ return bar (a); }

jjj (a)
{
  int D.1891;
  int D.1892;

  D.1892 = bar (a);
  D.1891 = D.1892;
  return D.1891;
}
