This is the patch I'm referring to:

    http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2006-12/msg00508.html

I didn't add a call to recog(), but by merging the "then" and "else"
code together, the code that normally executed the "else" code
(ie, offset != 0 && plus_src != NULL_RTX) now executes the recog()
that previously existed only in the "then" code.

Or maybe we could just gate this call to recog() to the "offset == 0"
case which would mimic the old behavior?
