[Bug other/17102] New: Missed constant folding opportunity

["gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Description:
A non-optimal code sequence is illustrated.    Duplicate using gcc 3.5 and
command line:

gcc -O3 -m64 -c test.c


Testcase:
#include "stdio.h"
const int C0 = 0;
const int C1 = 1;
const int C2 = 2;

void bar () {
  printf("bar\n");
}

void foo ()
{
  /* GCC is able to figure this one out, do constant
     folding and dead code elimination, and eliminate
     the entire block of code */
  if (1, 2, 0) bar ();

  /* .. it unsuccessfully resolves this one. */
  if (C1, C2, C0) bar ();
}

Assembly:
.foo:
      mflr 0
      ld 9,.LC2@toc(2)
      std 0,16(1)
      lwz 0,0(9)
      stdu 1,-112(1)
      cmpwi 7,0,0
      bne- 7,.L6
      addi 1,1,112
      ld 0,16(1)
      mtlr 0
      blr
.L6:
      ld 3,.LC3@toc(2)
      bl .puts
      nop
      addi 1,1,112
      ld 0,16(1)
      mtlr 0
      blr
