--- Comment #8 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Well, I think it is certainly desirable to keep using VEC_MERGE, not only
because it is less IL.
But pedantically already what i386 backend does doesn't match the documentation
which says that the last operand of VEC_MERGE is a CONST_INT.
We could just say that it is either a CONST_INT, or an RTL expression with a
scalar integral mode, or V*BImode mode.
And another question is how to represent the V*BImode constants, whether to
represent them as normal VOIDmode CONST_INTs, or something else
(const_vector:V*BI ...).
