The return value of builtin function rs6000_builtin_mul_widen_even
for Altivec is always signed, while it should be signed/unsigned 
as relevant (builtin vmuloub returns vector signed short, instead of vector
unsigned short, as defined by the altivec PIM).

It seems to be a more general problem with altivec builtins declaration.
