--- Comment #8 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> --- I had: __attribute__((noinline, noclone)) void bar (long i, unsigned long j) { if (i != 1 || j != 1) __builtin_abort (); } __attribute__((noinline, noclone)) void foo (long i) { unsigned long j; if (!i) return; j = i >= 0 ? (unsigned long) i : - (unsigned long) i; if ((i >= 0 ? (unsigned long) i : - (unsigned long) i) != j) __builtin_abort (); bar (i, j); } int main () { foo (1); return 0; } In any case, regressed with r217646, works with -O0/-O1, or -O2 -m32, fails with -O2 (on x86_64-linux).
