 The regression reported in PR c/8730 showed up starting
 with this large patch from long, long ago:
 
 Sat Nov 27 08:38:26 1999  Richard Kenner  <kenner@vlsi1.ultra.nyu.edu>
 
         * fold-const.c (negate_expr, associate_trees, extract_muldiv):
 New.
         (split_tree): Completely rework to make more general.
         (make_range, fold): Call negate_expr.
         (fold, case NEGATE_EXPR): Simplify -(a-b) is -ffast-math.
         (fold, associate): Call new split_tree and associate_trees.
         (fold, case MULT_EXPR, case *_{DIV,MOD}_EXPR): Call
 extract_muldiv.
 
 Here's a small test case that causes the compiler to ICE when compiled
 on i686-linux with the mainline:
 
 -------------------
 void foo() {
   void *bar (int i, int A[1][i]) { return A[0]; };
 };
 -------------------
 
 The behavior changes with the same patch for the submitter's
 test case.
 
 Output from the the mainline:
 
 8730.c: In function `bar':
 8730.c:2: internal compiler error: in expand_expr, at expr.c:6823
