     Ok, the source code was not correct, but the problem still remains.
 
     It doesn't matter if a retrun is put at the end of foo1 or not, gcc 
 produces the same problem.
 
     ( I subbmited a new PR: 
 http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=gcc&pr=10122 
 )
 
          In example_1 there is an unnecessary "mov r2,r0" as I descibed 
 in PR.
         There is only one problem with this example. An opimization 
 algorithm changed the
         order of instructions. So the unnecessary "mov r0,#35" is placed 
 earlier than
         "str r2,[r3,#0]" (because of unnecessary "mov r2,r0", where r0 
 is dead).
 
         In example_2 there is another unnecessary "mov r3,r0". I don't 
 know the reason of this.
 
     I hope these examples will help what the problem is!
