Hello, This tiny patch fixes the issue previously discussed in http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2012-09/msg00794.html
Not maintaining bb->count while merging basic blocs results in wrong partitioning (and surely other) decisions. This is visible on the SH4 with shrink-wrapping. I haven't noticed any difference on x86. This also solves a few "Invalid sum of incoming frequencies" messages while dumping the CFG Reg-tested on x85 and sh-superh-elf. Is it OK for the 4.7 and 4.8 branches ? Thanks Christian
