Bug ID: 59031
Summary: vtable lookup not optimized away
Product: gcc
Version: 4.8.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++

Proposed patch
The fix to PR c++/11750 at r193504 caused a regression in the following code at
-O0:
class B {
public:
virtual int add (int a, int b) {return a+ b;}
};
class D : public B {
};
int foo (int a, int b) {
D d;
return d.add(a, b);
}
The call d.add(a, b) used to generate a direct call to B::add, but now
generates an indirect call. At -O2, FRE could devirtualize this in some
situations but not always. The attached patch fixes this case and bootstraps
fine. Is this a reasonable fix?
