------- Additional Comments From rakdver at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-09-14 11:04 ------- Auch; that patch is actually a very bad idea. Pretending that complex addressing modes are cheaper, when they are not, is just confusing. If there are optimizers that indeed want to prefer complex addressing modes (like cse and combine, I suppose), they should reflect that in the cost function they are using, rather than forcing this missconception to every other optimizer.
