Not sure whether the testcase is valid or not. The multiplication using char
variables on both sides (and likewise for result) is: -54 * -56 (= 3024),
but (char) 3024 is -48. For int that would be clear undefined behavior, but
for char the multiplication is promoted to int, so it is (char) (int * int).
*.ccp1 has:
char D.2741;
char D.2741;
char si2;
int D.2727;
char D.2726;
int a.0;
<bb 2>:
a.0_2 = a;
D.2726_3 = (char) a.0_2;
D.2727_4 = (int) D.2726_3;
si2_11 = (char) D.2727_4;
D.2741_12 = si2_11 * -56;
D.2741_13 = D.2741_12;
D.2741_7 = D.2741_13;
if (D.2741_7 > 0)
but forwprop1 uses if (si2_11 < 0) test instead. If the testcase is valid, we
shouldn't assume undefined overflow for char and short operations.
