I've added 5 minutes ago an XFAILed test for exactly this code.  OTOH, I 
have also committed a fix that will avoid producing tons of shuffle and 
unpacking instructions when function "bar" is compiled with "-msse" but 
without "-msse2".

I'm also going to file a missed optimization bug soon.

I'm curious, does ICC support vector arithmetic like this? Do both 
functions compile? What code does it produce for bar?
