next bug


Here's the next bug which can be found by simply compiling glibc.  I
got several bugs in the math function test suite and maybe there is
more than one bug.  I chose the simplest function first and will see
whether this is the same problem as in the other tests.

The appended source is the nextafter function for double).  With the
2.91.24 compiler (from earlier this week) compiled the code to (this is only the beginning):

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The problem in this piece of code is at address 22 in both cases.  In
the old version the instruction

	movl   0x10(%esp,1),%eax

gets the MSW from the floating point value it just stored (see the
instruction before).  The new egcs is somehow very confused since it
thinks the value is already in a register (%ebp) and therefore does
not load it anymore.

But this is of course very wrong since the value in %ebp is from the
other floating point value.  I.e., egcs thinks it has both values in
the integer registers but in fact it only has two copies of the first
floating point value in the registers.
