EEMBC benchmark program bitmnp01/bmark.c with include files back-substituted.

Compile the EEMBC benchmark program "bitmnp01/bmark.c" (attached) with the
SPARC target at -Os, -O2, or -O3 and observe the generated assembly file.
(Other targets show the problem as well.)

There are over a hundred unnecessary register copy instructions due to the
failure of the register coalescer. The problem also causes unnecessary
spilling. For the first sequence of such copies, look near basic block 20.

This problem makes LLVM's generated code look terrible compared to GCC.
