Hmm, I don't remember why we are inconsistent in get_inner_reference
with respect to negative bitpos. I think we should be consistent
here and may not be only by accident? That is, does
diff --git a/gcc/expr.c b/gcc/expr.c
index c071be67783..9dc78587136 100644
--- a/gcc/expr.c
+++ b/gcc/expr.c

- if (tem.to_shwi (pbitpos))
+ if (tem.to_shwi (pbitpos) && !maybe_lt (*pbitpos, 0))
*poffset = offset = NULL_TREE;
}
fix the issue?
