            Bug ID: 72817
           Summary: wrong code at -O3 on x86_64-linux-gnu (in both 32-bit
                    and 64-bit modes)
           Product: gcc
           Version: 7.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: tree-optimization
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: su at cs dot ucdavis.edu
  Target Milestone: ---

At -O3, the generated code hangs.  At -O2, although the generated code does not
hang, there is a spurious warning of invoking undefined behavior. 

This should be a very recent regression as r238938 does not yet miscompile the
code.
