question about AltiVec builtins

[Janis Johnson]

Do scalar parameters to AltiVec builtins need to have exactly the same
type as the prototype, or promotion rules apply?  This test case fails
for all invocations of vec_dst where the second parameter is not 'int',
with gcc built from today's mainline:

#include <altivec.h>
                                                                                
vector int vi = { 1, 2, 3, 4 };
                                                                                
int
main ()
{
    unsigned long ul = 2;
    signed long sl = 2;
    unsigned int ui = 2;
    signed int si = 2;
                                                                                
    vec_dst (&vi, ul, 0);
    vec_dst (&vi, sl, 0);
    vec_dst (&vi, ui, 0);
    vec_dst (&vi, si, 0);
    return 0;
}
