Constrain not satisfied - floating point insns.

Sometimes it is impossible to avoid using an FP reg where we would 
prefer to have a data register.  This is why reload exists, to fix 
things that don't match their constraints after register allocation.

It isn't clear what the problem is.  Reload should have either forced 
the constant into memory, or else added a move insn so that we could 
load it into a data reg and then move the data reg to an FP reg.

Try looking at the RTL dumps to see what reloads were generated for this 
insn.  If the constraint failure happened after reload was done, what 
was the pre- and post- reload RTL for this insn?  Did a following pass 
like post-reload cse accidentally break the insn?

If the constraint failure is during reload, then you may have to spend a 
little time stepping through reload to see what went wrong.  The 
interesting bit would be in find_reloads, you can set a conditional 
breakpoint on the insn number to stop here when it processes this insn. 
  This function might be called multiple times for the same insn, as we 
have to iterate until all insns are fixed.
