another silly optimisation case

Hi,

egcs RH5.2 (egcs-2.90.27 980315 (egcs-1.0.2 release))
generates different code for these two functions, the
first including a jump even with -O6:

int f(int g) { return g ? 34 : 0; }

int g(int f) { return f && 34; }

I don't suppose (x ? y : 0) is a hugely common construction
but it seems to be another candidate for simple optimisation.

Am I missing something about what the standard says about
these two operators?

Matthew.
