Ah, I see.  I completely missed that optimization.

How does this updated patch look?  I removed one of the TCGv variables 
too.  Does that help performance?  What would be nice is a tcg 
subtract-from instruction, which I know some architectures have.  Maybe 
tcg does have it and I should look harder.

There is tcg_gen_subfi.

This wastes an operation.  If you switch andi and neg you don't need to
add 64.

Andreas.

Yes it looks ok. Removing one normal TCGv variable doesn't really help.
What helps is removing a tcg temp_local variable or a branch.

You can use tcg_gen_subfi_i64 (tcg result, immediate, tcg arg).
