Sorry about that; an oversight on my part.  If no promotions happen
then we must make sure (as the old code did) that we don't
inadvertently mark the relevant arguments as already being
sign/zero extended.

That below fixes your testcase for me.  OK to apply pending the
running of the testsuite on a MIPS target and x86-64 bootstrap?

	* combine.c (setup_incoming_promotions): Ensure that
	arguments that have not undergone mode promotions do not
	incorrectly get marked as being sign- or zero-extended.
