Like this:
Unable to identify any ilp32 powerpc variant that would issue a
sibcall, even as far back as when safe-indirect-jump-8.c was
introduced, before it was folded into -1.c (which introduced the
malformed negated triplet), I propose we drop the checks for
alternative codegen patterns and check for what we've been getting,
and sometimes checking for, since the introduction of the testcase.
Regstrapped on x86_64-linux-gnu. Also tested with ppc-elf and
ppc-vx7r2. Ok to install?
for gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog
* gcc.target/powerpc/safe-indirect-jump-1.c: Drop checks for
sibcall.

More tolerance and less prejudice are key for inclusion and diversity.
Excluding neuro-others for not behaving ""normal"" is *not* inclusive!
