>Description:

The default insn-length in gcc/config/v850/v850.md is 200, which is
completely absurd, and has the effect of causing many branches around
`asm' statements to be long jumps (since gcc uses the default
insn-length to estimate the code-size of asm statements).

On the v850, many instructions are 2 bytes, and only one is >4 bytes,
so I've used a value of `4' instead for over a year, and it works great.

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:

Here's a patch:

2002-09-26  Miles Bader  <miles@gnu.org>

	* config/v850/v850.md ("length"): Change default value to 4.
