--- Comment #15 from Uroš Bizjak <ubizjak at gmail dot com> ---
For the remaining issue:

   mov     eax, DWORD PTR [eax+4]
   ...
   mov     DWORD PTR [esp], eax     # worse than v6: spills to stack!
   fld     DWORD PTR [esp]          # instead of 'fsubr DWORD PTR [eax+4]'
   fsubrp  st(2), st

register allocator doesn't figure out that it loaded eax from [eax+4] a couple
of insns above - instead of a spill, it can access the value from the same
location.

This is a RA regression from gcc-5.
