[Bug bootstrap/17099] New: Bootstrap failure on powerpc64-redhat-linux

[jakub at gcc dot gnu dot org]

GCC 3.5.0 20040818 fails to bootstrap on powerpc64-redhat-linux
(no matter if starting bootstrap from GCC 3.4.1 or 3.3.4), there are lost of
comparison failures, apparently in .debug_info sections.

So far I have tracked it down to a miscompilation of modified_type_die.
Small testcase which shows the miscompilation is:
extern void exit (int);
extern void abort (void);

void
check (int a)
{
  if (a != 1)
    abort ();
}

void
test (int a, int b)
{
  check ((a ? 1 : 0) | (b ? 2 : 0));
}

int
main (void)
{
  test (1, 0);
  exit (0);
}

At -O2 -m64 this aborts.
