I've digged a little bit and this optimizes the testcase on PowerPC 32-bit.
The patch is completely untested though.

On PowerPC 64-bit which apparently doesn't use ZERO_EXTRACT in this case I
see a different issue.  It generates
        li 3,0
        ori 3,3,32820
        sldi 3,3,16
while IMHO 2 insns to load the constant would be completely sufficient,
apparently rs6000_emit_set_long_const needs work.
	lis 3,0x8034
	extsw 3,3
or
	li 3,0x401a
	sldi 3,3,17
etc. do IMHO the same.

	* cse.c (cse_insn): Optimize lhs ZERO_EXTRACT if only CONST_INTs are
	involved.
