>Description:
Compiling small functions sometimes adds unnecessary
"subl    $12, %esp" and "addl    $12, %esp".
For example, the attached function involving SSE2, which
produces the x86 assembly :

add:
        subl    $12, %esp
        movsd   24(%esp), %xmm0
        addsd   16(%esp), %xmm0
        movsd   %xmm0, (%esp)
        fldl    (%esp)
        addl    $12, %esp
        ret

A similar problem appears with C++ try blocks (see PR 3962), so it's not SSE related.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the following function with :
gcc -S -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -mfpmath=sse -march=pentium4 foo.c

double add(double a, double b) { return a+b; }
