Hi Guys,

  The gcc test gcc.dg/lto/pr55113_0.c is currently generating an ICE
  when compiled for x86 and x86_64 targets using the mainline sources
  (revision 231805):

<built-in>: internal compiler error: in layout_type, at stor-layout.c:2212
0xaee2c9 layout_type(tree_node*)
	/work/sources/gcc/current/gcc/stor-layout.c:2211
0xd9637b make_vector_type
	/work/sources/gcc/current/gcc/tree.c:9858
0xde6cbd ix86_get_builtin_type
	/work/sources/gcc/current/gcc/config/i386/i386.c:29504
0xde6d90 ix86_get_builtin_func_type

  The problem is that the test enables -fshort-doubles, but the
  ix86_get_builtin_func_type still uses the long doubles for the vector
  modes of the builtin types.  These long doubles have a larger
  alignment requirement than their short double equivalents, which
  eventually results in the assertion in stor-layout.c being triggered.

  The patch below is a fix for this problem, although I am not sure if
  it is the correct fix.  The patch selects the corresponding SFmode
  variant of the DFmode vector type when flag_short_doubles is enabled.
  Maybe a better patch would be to disallow these builtins when using an
  ABI breaking option ?

  Checked with no regressions on an x86_64-pc-linux-gnu toolchain.

  OK to apply ?

Cheers
  Nick

	* config/i386/i386.c (ix86_get_builtin_type): Use SFmode variant
	of DFmode vector types when -fshort-doubles is enabled.
