Fix internal compiler error on "var2 = var1 + 1" patterns This appears to be the correct fix. It was provided by Tormod Volden (debian.tormod@gmail.com). The final commit is substantially different from Tormod's submission mostly due to housecleaning (removing the old patches and updating the README). Tormod's comments follow. The original addhi_mem_1 "insn" instruction pattern /matches/ two memory operands, just with the /constraint/ that these are the same location. A pattern match tells the compiler "you should be able to use this, but you might have to work on it to meet the constraints". For typical constraints on registers the compiler can add "reloads", moving stuff between registers or from memory, until the constraints are met and the instruction can be used. However, in this case, no amount of reloads can make two memory locations the same if they already weren't, so the compiler breaks down and cries "unable to generate reloads". It seems this issue only appears if optimization is enabled. The proof is in gcc's reload.c and is left as an exercise to the reader. Limiting the matching pattern to identical memory operands avoids these situations, while allowing the common "var++" cases.

>This human-readable ASCII hexadecimal format consists of CR+LF terminated 
lines of ASCII text. Each line has the following structure: a zero-padded 
four-digit ASCII hex address, a colon separator, and one or more zero-padded
two-digit hex values separated by commas. ASCII Hexadecimal format favors 
paragraph-aligned addresses (i.e. a least significant address nybble value
of zero). During output, the number of hex values on each line are adjusted
to align the address of the next line on a paragraph boundary. The sequence 
of addresses in the ASCII Hexadecimal file directly follows that of the source
file; multiple ORG directives in the source code may result in out-of-sequence
addresses in the ASCII Hexadecimal output.</P
