There is an info on it in gccint.
Namelly peephole2 described well.
The best thing to do is just:
Get _small_ complette C example which results in the code to be optimized.
Compile it with -S -O2 -dp flags once and -S -O2 -dP second time.
Provide optimal solution.
Post it (or send me).
I'll write a peephole.
cheers,
~d
P.S. before makeing any changes to gcc code, post it here.
