             Bug #: 14608
           Summary: clang-3.1 breaks a piece of code that clang-3.0
                    compiles correctly
           Product: new-bugs
           Version: 3.1
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: new bugs
        AssignedTo: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: steve.linton at st-andrews.ac.uk
                CC: llvmbugs at cs.uiuc.edu
    Classification: Unclassified


Compiling GAP (www.gap-system.org) version 4.5.6. with clang-3.1 at
optimisation level 1 or higher breaks. In GAP the symptom is:

 ┌───────┐   GAP, Version 4.dev of today (free software, GPL)
 │  GAP  │   http://www.gap-system.org
 └───────┘   Architecture: x86_64-apple-darwin12.2.1-clang-mp-3.1-default32

gap> v := [Z(3)];
[ Z(3) ]
gap> ConvertToVectorRep(v);
3
gap> v;
[ 0*Z(3) ] 


The last line should be [ Z(3) ] as it is in clang-3.0 (or any known version of
gcc). 

I have traced the bug, I think to the compilation of lines 478-482 of
src/vec8bit.c. I can't understand the compiled code, but in execution, that
section corrupts memory at adresses a few dozen bytes away from the ones it
should be writing to. The source lines are:

  for (i = 0; i < q; i++)
    for (j = 0; j < e; j++)
      for (k = 0; k < 256; k++)
  SETELT_FIELDINFO_8BIT(info)[(i*e + j)*256 + k] = (UInt1)
    ((k/pows[j+1])*pows[j+1] + i*pows[j] + (k % pows[j]));


i,j, k and e are 32 but unsigned integers, pows an array of the same. SETELT...
is a macro (which should be side-effect free) which returns a pointer to an
unsigned char.
