Hi, this patch fixes a build time failure on VMS (while compiling Ada RTS file i-cstrin.adb) due to the use of short pointers:
i-cstrin.adb: In function 'Interfaces.C.Strings.To_Chars_Ptr': i-cstrin.adb:236:8: error: unrecognizable insn: (insn 80 79 81 13 (set (reg:SI 384) (const_int 4294967288 [0xfffffff8])) i-cstrin.adb:234 -1 (nil)) +===========================GNAT BUG DETECTED==============================+ | Pro 7.1.0w (20120403-47) (ia64-hp-openvms) GCC error: | | in extract_insn, at recog.c:2123 | | Error detected around i-cstrin.adb:236:8 | Expansion of POINTER_PLUS_EXPR doesn't handle the case of PRECISION(sizetype) > PRECISION(type), leading to RTL expressions with different modes. This patch fixes the build issue, tested on ia64-hp-openvms. Also tested with our internal testsuite. I haven't run the GCC testsuite on a regular platform, as the condition will never trigger. Ok for trunk ?
