In fold_unary, CASE_CONVERT, the folding of the conversion into a bitwise AND
is performed only for INTEGER_TYPE, while it could very likely be performed
for BOOLEAN_TYPE and ENUMERAL_TYPE as well:
/* Convert (T)(x & c) into (T)x & (T)c, if c is an integer
constants (if x has signed type, the sign bit cannot be set
in c). This folds extension into the BIT_AND_EXPR.
??? We don't do it for BOOLEAN_TYPE or ENUMERAL_TYPE because they
very likely don't have maximal range for their precision and this
transformation effectively doesn't preserve non-maximal ranges. */
if (TREE_CODE (type) == INTEGER_TYPE
&& TREE_CODE (op0) == BIT_AND_EXPR
&& TREE_CODE (TREE_OPERAND (op0, 1)) == INTEGER_CST)
The problem is that the transformation doesn't preserve non-maximal ranges for
a given precision and, as a consequence, VRP can draw different conclusions
on each side.
