s390-ibm-linux / s390x-ibm-linux
>Description:
In the following test case:

extern int global_var;
void test (void)
{
   int x = global_var;
   asm volatile ("" : "+d" (x));
}

the instruction to load 'global_var' into a register
is erroneously omitted.  This causes incorrect code
to be generated for the Linux kernel on s390.

This is a regression over 3.2, introduced by this patch:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-03/msg01070.html
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the test case shown above, and verify whether
the resulting assembler code references 'global_var'.
>Fix:
Either revert
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-03/msg01070.html
or add the fix
