After Bug #6520 is fixed, the testcase over there is fixed, but the real source
still does not compile...
This time it gets a little bit trickier:

unsigned long func(const char *s)
{
        const char *p;
        unsigned long len, f, t;

        asm (
                "xchg   %0, (%1)\n\t"
        : /* %0 */ "=a" (len),
          /* %1 */ "=r" (p),
          /* %2 */ "=r" (t),
          /* %3 */ "=r" (f)
        : /* %4 */ "1" (s)
        );
        return len;
}

The result is that the $whatever-component (RA?) totally forgets to get the
input "s" into %1. This is again striped down, but complicated enough to make
the problem obvious, all the fluff is only to not make the output look right by
accident (the prolog puts the right value into the reg by accident) or the
compiler has an easy way out (choosing %eax for %1).
This is what i get:

00000000 <func>:
   0:   55                      push   %ebp
   1:   89 e5                   mov    %esp,%ebp
   3:   56                      push   %esi
   4:   83 ec 1c                sub    $0x1c,%esp
   7:   8b 45 08                mov    0x8(%ebp),%eax
   a:   89 45 f8                mov    %eax,-0x8(%ebp)
   d:   8b 45 f8                mov    -0x8(%ebp),%eax
  10:   89 45 e4                mov    %eax,-0x1c(%ebp)
  13:   87 01                   xchg   %eax,(%ecx)
  15:   89 4d e4                mov    %ecx,-0x1c(%ebp)
  18:   89 45 f0                mov    %eax,-0x10(%ebp)
  1b:   89 4d f4                mov    %ecx,-0xc(%ebp)
  1e:   89 55 e8                mov    %edx,-0x18(%ebp)
  21:   89 75 ec                mov    %esi,-0x14(%ebp)
  24:   8b 45 f0                mov    -0x10(%ebp),%eax
  27:   83 c4 1c                add    $0x1c,%esp
  2a:   5e                      pop    %esi
  2b:   5d                      pop    %ebp
  2c:   c3                      ret

As one can see, %ecx is used for %1, but it is never initialized.

Greetings
Jan

PS: isn't there a pass to prevent the dead spills of edx && esi?
