             Bug #: 56715
           Summary: Explicit Reg Vars are being ignored for consts when
                    using g++
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.7.2
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: goswin-v-b@web.de

example source that experiences the bug

I'm trying to pass a value to an `asm' operand using a specific register for
arm with a freestanding compiler. Following the example from the info pages I
have the following code:

void foo() {
    register const int r4 asm("r4") = 0x1000;
    asm volatile("swi #1" : : "r"(r4));
}

void bar() {
    register int r4 asm("r4") = 0x1000;
    asm volatile("swi #1" : : "r"(r4));
}

Both foo() and bar() compile correct when using gcc. But when using g++ the
foo() function suddenly uses the "r3" register instead of "r4". The bar()
function remains correct.

% arm-none-eabi-g++ -v 
Using built-in specs.

% arm-none-eabi-gcc -O2 -save-temps -S bug.c         good code

The source explicitly asked for "r4" but g++ uses r3 instead.
