Subject: Re:  usual arithmetic conversion not
 applying correctly

Wonder if this PR could still be considered a missed optimization, as the
present logic which determines if an / or % expression's operands may be
shortened, misses the case where if the lhs operand is a constant, it may
be verified as not being INT_MIN; as if it's not, then it's impossible for
the operation to overflow, i.e. INT_MIN / -1  => INT_MAX+1, therefore
may be shortened. As noted as being absent in it's comment on shortening:

  /* Although it would be tempting to shorten always here, that loses
     on some targets, since the modulo instruction is undefined if the
     quotient can't be represented in the computation mode.  We shorten
     only if unsigned or if dividing by something we know != -1.  */
