This patch is a follow-up to the discussion generated by http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2012-06/msg00546.html. I've added vec_construct to the cost model for use in vect_model_load_cost, and implemented a cost calculation that makes sense to me for PowerPC. I'm less certain about the default, i386, and spu implementations. I took a guess at i386 from the discussions we had, and used the same calculation for the default and for spu. I'm hoping you or others can fill in the blanks if I guessed badly.
The i386 cost for vec_construct is different from all the others, which are parameterized for each processor description. This should probably be parameterized in some way as well, but thought you'd know better than I how that should be. Perhaps instead of elements / 2 + 1 it should be (elements / 2) * X + Y where X and Y are taken from the processor description, and represent the cost of a merge and a permute, respectively. Let me know what you think.
