           Summary: Suboptimal for logical test -> 0/1 with width > 8bit.
           Product: libraries
           Version: trunk
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: Backend: X86
        AssignedTo: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: joerg at NetBSD.org

Test program:

int testf(int f)
{
    return f != 0;
}

Resulting assembler:
    testl    %edi, %edi
    setne    %al
    movzbl    %al, %eax

More compact assembler:
    xorl    %eax, %eax
    testl    %edi, %edi
    setne    %al

This saves one byte and may result in better scheduling.
