UPDATE:
The df_analyze_loop is calling the df_set_blocks. Thus, the analysis
behaves as if the function only contains those blocks and any edges
that occur directly between the blocks in the set (see df-core.cc).
This said, the loop-doloop behaves faulty at loop-doloop.cc:772 as the
df_get_lives_out (loop_end) is not computed correctly.

A possible solution is to include in the blocks_to_analyze the missing
basic blocks, something like:

diff --git a/gcc/df-core.cc b/gcc/df-core.cc
index a901b84878f..d7059c188b2 100644
--- a/gcc/df-core.cc
+++ b/gcc/df-core.cc
@@ -1437,7 +1437,15 @@ df_analyze_loop (class loop *loop)
   df_set_blocks (blocks);
   BITMAP_FREE (blocks);

-  df_analyze_1 ();
+  /* Add the loop's header successor bbs too.  */
+  edge e;
+  edge_iterator ei;
+  FOR_EACH_EDGE (e, ei, loop->header->succs)

 }

What do you think,
