[Bug preprocessor/19821] New: Preprocessor oom with nested vector operations


With 4 nested vec_add()'s gcc goes out of memory on my 512MB+1GBswap ppc box. 
With 3 adds it consumes about 150MB of memory and eventually succeeds. The 
preprocessor expands the y=... line into an exagerately huge expression. fftw3 
fails to compile because of this.
Tested on gcc 3.4.1 and 3.4.3, stable versions. They were configured with the 
following options:

./configure --prefix=/usr/ --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --with-system-
zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-checking --enable-altivec --with-cpu=7450 -
-enable-languages=c,c++,objc



#include <altivec.h>

main() {
	vector float y, a, b;

	y = vec_add(a, vec_add(a, vec_add(a, vec_add(a, b))));
}

# gcc -maltivec c.c
