[Bug optimization/14559] casts between vector pointer types are very slow

This time this is invalid as you should be using an union instead of a cast as the vecotrs types are in 
two different aliasing sets.
The following code produces the code you want.
 typedef short mmxw  __attribute__ ((mode(V4HI)));
 typedef int   mmxdw __attribute__ ((mode(V2SI)));
union t
{
 mmxw t1;
 mmxdw t2;
};
mmxdw test(mmxw w){
    union t t3;
    t3.t1 = w;
    return t3.t2;
}
