Hi all.

I discovered an optimization error in the current gcc for MIPS.

When I compile the code below with -O2 it clears the code-field just 
after setting it. The instructions are mixed up. It works fine with -O1 
and -O0.

If the "//" is removed in front of the first printf, it works too.

#include <stdio.h>


typedef struct rtx_def
{
 short code;
 int dummy;
} rtx;


void put_code (rtx *rt, short code)
{
 register int length;

 length = 1;
 for (; length >= 0; length--)
   ((int *) rt)[length] = 0;

 // printf("put_code before\n");
 rt->code = code;
 printf("put_code after, code=%d %d\n", code, rt->code);
}


int main()
{
 rtx rt;

 put_code(&rt, 5);
 printf("gen_rtx, code=%d\n", rt.code);
}

The assembler looks like:

       .rdata
       .align  2
$LC0:
       .ascii  "put_code after, code=%d %d\n\000"
       .text
       .align  2
       .globl  put_code
       .ent    put_code
       .type    put_code,@function
put_code:
       .frame  $sp,32,$31              # vars= 0, regs= 2/0, args= 16,
