patch that caused regression PR c/8730


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 same patch causes the behavior to change with the
submitter's larger 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
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.

I've added this information to the PR.
