Hi!

As it's been some time: this was the discussion about
-fstrict-volatile-bitfields (as enabled by default on SH, for example)
breaking some testsuite bits due to missed optimizations (even for
bitfields that are not volatile).

In that case, would it be appropriate to apply the following?

gcc/testsuite/
	* gcc.dg/tree-ssa/20030922-1.c: Compile with
	-fno-strict-volatile-bitfields.
	* gcc.dg/tree-ssa/foldconst-3.c: Likewise.
	* gcc.dg/tree-ssa/vrp15.c: Likewise.



Grüße,
 Thomas

None of these have any volatile bitfields, so the option should be a no-op.

The problem is that we have to treat normal bitfields differently as
well, since a variable may later be declared as volatile.
