The following testcase causes an ICE. It is simply gcc.dg/980502-1.c
invoked with a different set of options, in particular, -fno-tree-dce.
Also included is the output of the final ccp pass. Notice the (dead)
assignment '88 = 1'. It looks like 'line[8]' in an lvalue context was
incorrectly folded to an rvalue. I believe that the RTL phases choke on
this when DCE is not allowed to eliminate it. I produced the output
below using trunk, but the issue shows up in 4.0.3 and probably elsewhere.
