This patch removes what I believe is a redundant check in store_bit_field_1
for whether the value to insert (i.e. the rhs) has BLKmode.  We shouldn't
see BLKmode values here, and even if we did, the only effect of the test
is to fall through to store_fixed_bit_field, which can't handle BLKmode
either.  Specifically, store_fixed_bit_field would call:

      if (GET_MODE (value) != mode)
	value = convert_to_mode (mode, value, 1);

and convert_to_mode ICEs on BLKmode values.

Tested as described in the covering note.  OK to install?

Richard

This looks fine to me.

Btw, I consider Eric the best person to approve changes in this area.
Thus if there is any doubt all patches in this series are ok if Eric
thinks they are ;)

Thanks,
