I'm wondering why this change is necessary; existing code seems to attempt to handle match_operator operands by detecting an empty constraint string: if (*constraints[i] == 0) /* Ignore things like match_operator operands. */ ; [...] /* An empty constraint or empty alternative allows anything which matched the pattern. */ if (*p == 0 || *p == ',') win = 1, badop = 0; So it seems to me that for match_operator operands, the goal_alternative_win flag should always be true ... Can you find out why this isn't true in your case? Bye, Ulrich -- Dr. Ulrich Weigand GNU Toolchain for Linux on System z and Cell BE ulrich.weig...@de.ibm.com
