Well, first show what really happens; if it really deletes a USE, that is a bug yes. rtl.def says: /* Indicate something is used in a way that we don't want to explain.

USE is not deletable, as it indicates that the operand is used in some unknown way. */ DEF_RTL_EXPR(USE, "use", "e", RTX_EXTRA) > I don't suppose I can easily reproduce it on another architecture, so > it'll have to wait until GCN is committed.
