Hi!

I've noticed a warning during bootstrap:
../../gcc/reorg.c: In function ‘void try_merge_delay_insns(rtx_insn*, 
rtx_insn*)’:
../../gcc/reorg.c:1431:12: warning: name lookup of ‘i’ changed

It is not fatal, but still ugly.  The problem is that the function has
  int i;
...
  for (i = 0; ...)
...
  for (unsigned int i = ... )
...
  for (i = 0; ...)
This patch just declares the var in the only affected loop, so that the warning
is not emitted, unless we start checking -Wshadow warnings, I think this is
good enough.

Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux and i686-linux, ok for trunk?

        * reorg.c (try_merge_delay_insns): Declare i inside the last
        for loop to avoid warning.
I'd like to declare this in the "obviously OK" category for future changes of a similar nature. But I don't think we can because in the general case the value from the loop may be used outside the loop.

Makes me wonder if a plugin could help identify the obvious cases where the value from the loop isn't used outside the loop, thus allowing someone to quickly convert many of these things with a small effort.
