[Bug target/36079] [4.3/4.4 Regression] cld instruction is not emitted anymore.



------- Comment #3 from rguenth at gcc dot gnu dot org  2008-04-29 14:46 -------
ISVs usually build with compilers from the stone-age to be able to run their
applications on all still supported OS versions.  So it is very unlikely that
they will hit this problem.  In fact if we enable this workaround in 4.3 we
give them a false sense of security that this "feature" is maintained.  It also
gives them a false sense of the severity of this problem which is very low,
very much lower than any other random wrong-code bug we discover.

Marking as ABI issue, but not wrong-code (it is not).  Marking as regression.

I vote for "RESOVED INVALID".
