Do you mean things like "mulhisi3"?

That's a pattern for a multiplication whose output is longer than its inputs.  
But the RTL it builds has a regular mult insn with equal length operands (all 
SImode in this example), with sign_extend insns in the mult source operands.  
So I don't believe that contradicts what Jakub said.
