Confirmed. Present mainline gives different assembly than the
tree-ssa results you showed, but the code is equally suboptimal.

One question, though: from the summary line, it seems as if you
imply that the problem is related to global variables. Do you
have an example that this doesn't happen with locals?

W.

Here's what I get with mainline (actually from the C++ FE, but that
shouldn't matter so much):
_Z3foov:
.LFB2:
        movl    a, %eax
        cmpl    $-1, %eax
        je      .L3
        addl    $2, %eax
        movl    %eax, a
        ret
        .p2align 4,,7
.L3:
        xorl    %eax, %eax
        movl    %eax, a
        ret
.LFE2:
        .size   _Z3foov, .-_Z3foov
        .section        .note.GNU-stack,"",@progbits
        .ident  "GCC: (GNU) 3.4 20030919 (experimental)"
