I've found what's going on:
* In expmed.c (init_expmed_one_mode), l.194
set_shiftadd_cost (speed, mode, m, set_src_cost (all->shift_add, speed));
with all->shift_add something like
(plus:QI (mult:QI (reg:QI 109 [0])
(const_int 8 [0x8]))
(reg:QI 109 [0]))
* For the mult part, rtx_code calls sparc_rtx_cost, which has
case MULT:
if (float_mode_p)
*total = sparc_costs->float_mul;
else if (! TARGET_HARD_MUL)
*total = COSTS_N_INSNS (25);
On SPARCv9/-m64, TARGET_HARD_MUL is false, so we get the 25*4 = 100 part,
unlike v8, which explains why the test only fails for 64-bit.
