[Bug middle-end/28161] New: Wrong bit field layout with -mms-bitfields


Several g++ tests in tmpdir-g++.dg-struct-layout-1 fail with
the execution error.  A reduced testcase is

extern "C" void abort (void);

struct S
{
  long long d:23;
  int e:32;
  int f:32;
} a;

int main (void)
{
  a.e = -3;
  a.f = 1;
  if (a.e != -3)
    abort ();
  return 0;
}

which shows that the current compiler allocates a.e and a.f in
an overlapped manner with -mms-bitfields.  With that option,
the 4.1 compiler allocates a field in the first 8-byte for a.d,
the next 4-byte for a.e and the another 4-byte for a.f, but 4.2
allocates 23-bit for a.d, the next 32-bit for a.e and the last
32-bit for a.f in the same 8-byte.
