join_bb is EXIT_BLOCK_PTR just fine, provided that single_succ (then_bb)
== join_bb and !else_bb || single_succ (else_bb) == join_bb.
The ICE is there only because of the extra optimization I've tweaked,
the problem is there that then_bb has no successors and join_bb is
EXIT_BLOCK_PTR, so while then_bb can be successfully merged together with
test_bb, it has no successor and as join_bb is EXIT_BLOCK_PTR, we just give
up.  If then_bb has no successor and join_bb isn't EXIT_BLOCK_PTR, we'd
normally do:
  else if (EDGE_COUNT (join_bb->preds) < 2
           && join_bb != EXIT_BLOCK_PTR)
    {
      /* We can merge the JOIN cleanly and update the dataflow try
         again on this pass.*/
      merge_blocks (combo_bb, join_bb);
      num_true_changes++;
    }
and all is fine, and if then_bb (and else_bb if it exists) has a single
successor of join_bb, all is fine too.
