That's true, the examples are quite artificial, because it is difficult
and quite target-dependent, if there will be a movmisalign optab at all.

And the original test case will no longer reproduce on trunk because of this
change:

2013-08-08  Bernd Edlinger  <bernd.edlin...@hotmail.de>
 
    PR target/58065
    * config/arm/arm.h (MALLOC_ABI_ALIGNMENT): Define.
 
maybe we should first backport this one.

Yesterday someone did that on the linaro branch,
but maybe /branches/gcc-4_8-branch should be updated as well?
