But ... let's not panic, but wait and see the final result of the
discussion on the gcc PR. Jakub at least seems to think it ought
to be a supportable case.

What you could do in the meantime is work on finding a variation of
Victor's test that will detect the bug regardless of -O level.
If we do have hope that future gcc versions will handle this correctly,
we'll need a better test rather than just summarily dismissing
host_cpu = sparc.
