not at all, but it has two problems:
* The new branch_cost effective-target keyword needs documenting in
sourcebuild.texi, as always.
* The patch caused a regression on non-Linux x86 targets:
FAIL: gcc.dg/tree-ssa/phi-opt-2.c scan-tree-dump-times optimized "if" 1 (found
0 times)
I'm seeing this on i386-pc-solaris2.*, and according to
gcc-testresults it happens on *86-*-freebsd*, too. The reason is
simple: while the original testcase enabled -mbranch-cost for all
i?86-*-* and x86_64-*-* targets, the new branch_cost keyword does so
only for i?86-*-linux* and x86_64-*-linux* for no reason I can see.
Fixing that lets the test PASS on Solaris/x86, too, so I'm installing
the following patch.
