[Bug middle-end/43184] New: gcc could not vectorize floating point reduction statements

[changpeng dot fang at amd dot com]

gcc 4.5 could not vectorize floating point reductions.
float sum(float a[], int n) {
 int i;
 float total=0.0;
 for(i=0; i< n; i++)
  total += a[i];
 return total;
}

"gcc -O3 -fdump-tree-vect-all" shows:
foo.c:4: note: Unsupported pattern.
foo.c:4: note: not vectorized: unsupported use in stmt.
foo.c:4: note: unexpected pattern.
foo.c:1: note: vectorized 0 loops in function.

I have verified that gcc can vectorize integer reduction, but not float and
double.
