Bug 39764

Description of problem:
We believe we have found a bug in gcc.  We have been trying to track
down why .../drivers/scsi/sym53c8xx.c driver oopses when initializing
at line 5265, which reads:

        period = (4 * div_10M[0] + np->clock_khz - 1) / np->clock_khz;

We believe the bug is that gcc is generating incorrect code for this:

                if      (f1 < 55000)            f1 =  40000;
                else                            f1 =  80000;

Here is the test code to demonstrate this:

% cat bug.c
int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
    unsigned f1;

    f1 = (unsigned)argc;

    if (f1 < 5) {
        f1 = 4;
    } else {
        f1 = 8;
    }
    exit (f1);
}

And here are commands to exhibit the problem.

% for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 ; do ln bug.c bug$i.c ; done
% for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 ; do gcc -save-temps -O$i -o bug$i bug$i.c ; done
% for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 ; do ./bug$i 1 2 ; echo $? ; done
% for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 ; do ./bug$i 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ; echo $? ; done

The level 0 optimization assembly code appears correct.  For level 1 and
above, the compiler emits a long subtract with borrow statement which
leaves EAX either 0 filled or 1 filled, based on the carry flag.

As this is with Red Hat's gcc, I'm not sending this to the gcc.  Versions
with this problem include gcc-2.96-69 and gcc-2.96-81.
