--- Comment #2 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Here is another testcase, the only use of _BitInt is in the cast, everything else is a bitfield: ``` struct a { unsigned t:(sizeof(int)*8-1); }; typedef unsigned _BitInt(sizeof(int)*8-1) ub31; struct a ub63_0; struct a ub63_1; void foo (void) { ub63_1.t = (ub31) ((ub63_0.t | (-1u>>1) ) >> 1 | (ub63_0.t | 1u) << 4); } ``` I still can't figure out why the cast is needed though.
