"I guess its hard to find a fix that does not regress elsewhere, so I'm inclined to WONTFIX this on the 4.2 branch." are you referring to functional problems or to Richard E's comments regarding code size? The followup PR 31676 patch looks very small; couldn't we backport this patch plus that one to 4.2, if we wanted to do so? As for the code size regression, Richard E., have you had a chance to identify a specific CSiBE file that expands, so that Zdenek can look at that? Meanwhile, I would prefer to leave this regression open. I really do feel that it's a severe optimization regression. After all, this is basically a variant on bzero.
