[Bug c/16497] New: IMA changes break linux kernel compile (register vars)

Using current HEAD when compiling this:
----------------------------------
register int *current asm ("r2");
int f()
{
return *current;
}
----------------------------------
we get this error:
% ./gcc/cc1 -O2 -quiet r2-test.i
r2-test.i: In function `f':
r2-test.i:1: error: register name not specified for 'current'
This was working before. A CVS hunt identifies this timeframe:
cvs diff -D "2004-07-08 2000" -D "2004-07-08 2200" ChangeLog, which are Zacks
patches:
+2004-07-08 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com>
+
+ * c-decl.c (static_ctors, static_dtors): Make static.
+ (pop_file_scope): Call c_common_write_pch and
....
+2004-07-08 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com>
+
+ * c-decl.c (pop_scope): Do not set DECL_CONTEXT on file-scope
+ decls when there is only one input translation unit.
What happens is, that the DECL for 'current' is created twice. First when
parsing the declaration with the correct asmspec "r2". And a second time
when called again from DECL_RTL macro, because ->decl.rtl was reset in the
meantime. This reset happens in check_global_declarations, because of
if (TREE_CODE (decl) == VAR_DECL && TREE_STATIC (decl)
&& ! TREE_ASM_WRITTEN (decl))
SET_DECL_RTL (decl, NULL_RTX);
This is called _before_ cgraph_optimize() after Zacks patches. But this
compiles the function (and thereby tests the asmspec of the above decl,
which meanwhile got reset) and therefore emits the error.
