[Bug middle-end/36633] New: warning "array subscript is below array bounds" on delete [] with -O2, -Wall


When deleting an array of dynamically allocated objects that inherit some base
class, a pointer offset calculation is modified during the optimization process
of a delete [] operator. The result is a subscript operation with a negative
index and this causes the warning to be emitted (erroneously I believe).

This was determined by analyzing the tree dump.

The file move_array.cpp.059t.dce2 has this code:
D.2208_15 = D.2171_6 + -8;
operator delete [] (D.2208_15);

turn into this in move_array.cpp.060t.forwprop2:
D.2208_15 = &(*D.2149_3)[-8];
operator delete [] (D.2208_15);
