This was the last post.

Do let me know if you are interesred to use this. This has
not been checked in the mainline. For patches like this
to go into mainline, they should be tested for atleast 5 gcc 
targets. I couldn't do that. But I can help, if you are 
interested.

Best Regards,
Naveen Sharma.

Thanks, I knew this but for an optimization patch, we 
need to prove that it actually improves (or doesn't degrade) 
code for (N >= 5) targets. This IMHO requires significant effort.
But since there is interest on this, I can do simulator
test with latest version of the patch, but not in a position to 
fix problems except sh-elf.

This would probably have to be tested on tree-ssa branch now, right?
Let me check what additional problems arise.

Naveen Sharma.
