i686-pc-linux-gnu
>Description:
When the following source is compiled with "-O2 -fschedule-insns -fno-schedule-insns2", the scheduling is incorrect.

> gcc -S -O2 -fschedule-insns -fno-schedule-insns2 sched-bug.c
> cat sched-bug.s 
        .file   "sched-bug.c"
        .text
        .p2align 4,,15
.globl func
        .type   func,@function
func:
        pushl   %ebp
        movl    %esp, %ebp
        movzwl  12(%ebp), %edx
        movl    8(%ebp), %eax
        movw    %dx, (%eax)
        movl    $0, (%eax)
        popl    %ebp
        ret
.Lfe1:
        .size   func,.Lfe1-func
        .ident  "GCC: (GNU) 3.2.2"

"movl $0, (%eax)" is generated from "rr-code = code" and "movw %dx, (%eax)" is generated from "((unsigned long *)rr)[0] = 0;".
So "movw %dx, (%eax)" should be located after "movl $0, (%eax)".
>How-To-Repeat:
typedef struct r {
  unsigned short code;
  int a;
} ST;

void func( ST *rr, unsigned short code )
{
  ((unsigned long *)rr)[0] = 0;
  rr->code = code;
}
