gcc-linaro-2011.01 no longer ICEs.

The particular error is:

In file included from ref_vst1_lane.c:27:0:
.../4.5.2/include/arm_neon.h: In function 'exec_vst1_lane':
.../4.5.2/include/arm_neon.h:8424:33: error: argument must be a constant
.../4.5.2/include/arm_neon.h:8448:33: error: argument must be a constant

A bit of bisection shows that these two lines:

  TEST_VST1_LANE(q, int, s, 8, 16, 15);
  TEST_VST1_LANE(q, uint, u, 8, 16, 10);

are the cause.  The other, similar lines are fine.

dspfns.h is:
 https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+bug/625256

armdsp.h isn't tracked anywhere.  Both of these are ARM specific and
we should talk about it on Monday.

Richard Sandiford, could you have a look at the vst1_lane faults?
