This code path seems to be for pushing a conversion down into a binary

I tend to agree, but this case is tricky. What's this code about is
e.g. for
int
fn (long p, long o)
{
return p + o;
}
we want to narrow the operation and do the addition on unsigned ints and then
convert to int. We do it here because we're still missing the
promotion/demotion pass on GIMPLE (PR45397 / PR47477). Disabling this
optimization here would regress a few testcases, so I kept the code as it was.
Thoughts?
That makes sense, but please add a comment referring to one of those PRs
and also add a note to the PR about this place. OK with that change.
Moreover, there are some places in the C++ FE where we still call
convert_to_integer and not convert_to_integer_nofold -- should they be
changed to the _nofold variant?
Not in build_base_path; its arithmetic is compiler generated and should
really be delayed until genericize anyway. Likewise for
get_delta_difference.
I think the call in finish_omp_clauses could change.
