[Bug c/29274] New: 4.1, 4.2 (possibly 4.0?) not using mulsidi3


GCC 4.x tree optimization decides to put int values into long long int
temporaries.  When RTL expansion comes around, the expander sees only a DImode
multiply and so generates three SImode multiplies to deal with the problem.

GCC 3.x sees that the source values are SImode and uses mulsidi3 to generate
32x32->64 multiplies, which are much more efficient.  It also picks up the
accumulation.

(using -O3 for all compilations)

GCC 3.4 has an 84-byte stack frame, and a body of 372 instructions.
GCC 4.1 has a 1416-byte stack frame, and a body of 1668 instructions.
GCC 4.2 has a 1320-byte stack frame, and a body of 1565 instructions.
