Testcase:
unsigned char f(unsigned int m_pAttachedTo)
{
  return m_pAttachedTo != 0;
}

When merging the PS3 specific changes up to 4.3.0, I Noticed that -m32
-mpowerpc64 produces better code in some cases than -m64, this is one such
case.
Right now with -m64 we produce:
        srawi 0,3,31
        xor 3,0,3
        subf 3,3,0
        rldicl 3,3,33,63
        blr
But since m_pAttachedTo is passed as a zero extended 64bit we should be able to
produce:
        addic 9,3,-1
        subfe 0,9,3
        blr
As we do for -m32 and also for 64bit unsigned integers with -m64.
