Yes, I am sure that the problem is the '== FLAG' comparison. Before I reported
that bug, I tried to bypass it and this macro does not produce shift
instructions even on GCC 4.7:

#define BIT_MASK_IS_SET_(VALUE, BITMASK)\
        ({int _value = VALUE & BITMASK,\
        _result;\
        if (_value == BITMASK){\
                _result = 1;\
        }\
        else {\
                _result = 0;\
        }\
        _result;})

So this is definitely the comparison.

As I understand, you meant the following (I added new functions at the end of
file):

$ cat f.c
#define ADDR 0xFFFF0000
#define P ((unsigned char *)ADDR)
#define FLAG 0x40
#define S 7

unsigned char f_char_var(char v){
    return (v & FLAG) == FLAG;
}

unsigned char f_unsigned_char_var(unsigned char v){
    return (v & FLAG) == FLAG;
}

unsigned char f_symbol(void){
    return (*P & FLAG) == FLAG;
}

unsigned char f_symbol_zero(void){
    return (*P & FLAG) == 0;
}

unsigned char f_symbol_non_zero(void){
    return (*P & FLAG) != 0;
}

Compiler flags: -c -mrenesas -m2e -mb -O -fno-toplevel-reorder

I choose that name because I wanted to disable dynamic shift instructions for
all CPUs. I did not hope that it will affect SH-2E code in such way.

I can rewrite the patch so that it only affects CPUs that do not support
dynamic shifts and disables library call for dynamic shifts. I'll do it anyway
because I need it badly. How do you think, what name of option would be better:
'-mdisable-dynshift-libcall' or '-mhw-shift'? Or if you want, please suggest
another one. Thank you!
