And we save an instruction on x86 (both with -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer)
before:
movl 4(%esp), %edx
movb $1, %al
testl %edx, %edx
je .L4
movzbl (%edx), %eax
.L4:
movsbl %al,%eax
ret
after:
movl 4(%esp), %edx
movl $1, %eax
testl %edx, %edx
je .L10
movsbl (%edx),%eax
.L10:
ret-- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21520
