As discussed in the PR, the MIN_EXPR being passed to VRP has 
incompatible signs.  I expect MIN_EXPR to have the same type for all 
arguments plus the MIN_EXPR node itself, but this is not the case.

The culprit on PPC is expand_builtin_strncmp, but fixing it there causes 
other problems on x86-64 (see PR).  I believe Martin Sebor had some 
questions related to the x86 fallout 
(https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2018-08/msg00164.html).

Since it seems this has been broken for a while, and I'd like to unbreak 
PPC without having to take my patch out, I suggest (for now) just 
passing the sign of the first argument as VRP had been doing all along 
(through int_const_binop):

int_const_binop():
...
   tree type = TREE_TYPE (arg1);
...
   if (TREE_CODE (arg1) == INTEGER_CST && TREE_CODE (arg2) == INTEGER_CST)
     {
       wide_int warg1 = wi::to_wide (arg1), res;
       wide_int warg2 = wi::to_wide (arg2, TYPE_PRECISION (type));
       success = wide_int_binop (res, code, warg1, warg2, sign, &overflow);
       poly_res = res;
     }

At some point later, if someone is sufficiently vexed by broken 
MIN_EXPR, we could fix it and the x86 fall out.

OK pending tests?

I don't think we need this after fixing the strncmp code...

Agreed. Thank you Martin!
