System: Linux wailua.hpl.hp.com 2.4.17 #2 SMP Thu Jan 17 13:53:26 PST 2002 ia64 unknown
Architecture: ia64

	ia64, Linux, ia64
host: ia64-hp-linux-gnu

>Description:
	On the attached test program, gcc generates bad code with
	an optimization level of -O2.  -O works fine.
>How-To-Repeat:
	$ gcc -O2 test.c
	$ ./a.out
	./a.out 
	dev=1220
	dev=1220

This is wrong.  The correct output should be:

	dev=800
	dev=810

>Fix:
	The workaround is to drop the optimization level to -O.
