 I believe the following patch is the cause of this PR:
 
 2002-05-15  Eric Botcazou  <ebotcazou@multimania.com>
 
 	* fold-const.c (fold) [LT_EXPR]: Move the transformation of a
 	comparison against the highest or lowest integer value before
 	the 'X >= CST to X > (CST - 1)' and 'X < CST to X <= (CST - 1)'
 	transformation and that of an unsigned comparison against 0
 	right after.
 
 Previously, unsigned X < 128 would be converted to unsigned X <= 127 and
 then optimized to signed X >= 0.  After changing the order of the
 transformations, the compiler only reduces the expression to X <= 127 ???
 The result is the reported ICE.  This could very well be a latent bug
 in other parts of the compiler, but it seems the change results in missed
 opportunities to simplify expressions.  I'll post an alternative patch
 in my next message...
