--- Comment #2 from David Malcolm <dmalcolm at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
I think this is misconfigurfation at my end; sorry.

I'm on power7 hw, emulating via qemu, and I did *not*
configure with the options suggested by Jakub in comment #1;
so I think I'm misconfiguring the build.

A minimal reproducer for the behavior I'm seeing:

$ cat main.c
#include <assert.h>

union int_or_float
{
  int as_int;
  float as_float;
};

float  __attribute__ ((noinline))
test_union (int i)
{
  union int_or_float u;
  u.as_int = i;
  return u.as_float;
}

int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
  union int_or_float u;

  float f_result = test_union (42);
  u.as_float = f_result;

  assert (u.as_int == 42);
  return 0;
}

(eof)

Compiling with -O1 or above, with -mcpu=power8:
        gcc -O1 main.c -mcpu=power8
I get SIGILL:
(gdb) disassemble
Dump of assembler code for function test_union:

   0x000000001000063c <+24>:    .long 0x0

presumably due to not actually being on power8.

I'll rerun the JIT build and tests, with the correct configuration flags for
this hardware, and  with the candidate patches for PR jit/64810 (so that the
jit honors them).
