--- Comment #2 from Richard Guenther <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> 2011-09-05 14:06:57 UTC --- Index: gcc/varasm.c =================================================================== --- gcc/varasm.c (revision 178527) +++ gcc/varasm.c (working copy) @@ -4746,9 +4746,13 @@ output_constructor_regular_field (oc_loc if (local->index != NULL_TREE) { + /* Perform the index calculation in modulo arithmetic but + sign-extend the result because Ada has negative DECL_FIELD_OFFSETs + but we are using an unsigned sizetype. */ + unsigned prec = TYPE_PRECISION (sizetype); double_int idx = double_int_sub (tree_to_double_int (local->index), tree_to_double_int (local->min_index)); - gcc_assert (double_int_fits_in_shwi_p (idx)); + idx = double_int_sext (idx, prec); fieldpos = (tree_low_cst (TYPE_SIZE_UNIT (TREE_TYPE (local->val)), 1) * idx.low); } fixes this, but loses the check for index - min_index overflowing a HWI (arguably that should have been detected earlier in the FEs). Fact is we lose information when forcing offsets / indices to an unsigned type.
