Yeah, so I seem to need to add a cbranchMODE4 pattern. I tried it, but it didn't help.
Probably because I'm not fit enough yet to write a proper pattern (I copied one from
ia64 and modified it to see if it gets picked up, but it didn't happen).

Sorry, the line numbers in the ICE are wrong, since I added some debug messages.
The abort happens here in prepare_cmp_insn():

       /* Handle a libcall just for the mode we are using.  */
       libfunc = optab_libfunc (cmp_optab, mode);
       gcc_assert (libfunc);    <------ HERE
