(0 < diff ? -1 : 1) : (0 > diff ? -1 : 1); } return 0; } int main () { __builtin_printf (" is %d\n", comp (&oper0, &oper1)); __builtin_printf (" is %d\n", comp (&oper1, &oper0)); return 0; } With current 4.6 branch as well as trunk, compiling with with -m31 -O{0,1,2} on x86_64-linux -> s390x-linux cross, then running on s390 always results in: 900000000 vs 400000000 is 1 400000000 vs 900000000 is -1
