[Bug c/33663] New: local register variable and memcmp

["akr at m17n dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

I found "unable to find a register to spill in class 'SIREG'" error by
following example.

% cat tst.c
void fun(void)
{
  register int val1 asm("esi");
  int val2;

  if (val2) {
    val2 = memcmp((void*)1, (void*)2, 3);
  }
  baz(val1, val2);
}

% gcc -v -O2 -c tst.c
