I have code like this:

         preferred = current;
         /* PINs are even numbered, PUKs are odd */
         if (!(preferred & 1))
             preferred++;
         if (preferred >= 126)
             return SC_ERROR_TOO_MANY_OBJECTS;
     }

     if (current > preferred || preferred > CARDOS_PIN_ID_MAX)
         return SC_ERROR_TOO_MANY_OBJECTS;

On x86_64, the condition in the final if statement is gimplified as:

-  D.8003 = current > preferred;
-  D.8004 = preferred > 15;
-  D.8005 = D.8003 | D.8004;
-  if (D.8005 != 0) goto <D.8006>; else goto <D.8007>;

On rs6000 (-mtune=power7 -mcpu=power7), I get this instead:

+  if (current > preferred) goto <D.8376>; else goto <D.8378>;
+  <D.8378>:
+  if (preferred > 15) goto <D.8376>; else goto <D.8377>;

Here's a self-contained reproducer:

int g(void);

int
f(int flags, int current)
{
  int preferred;
  if (flags & 0x80) {
    preferred = 1;
  } else {
    preferred = current;
    if (!(preferred & 1))
      preferred++;
    if (preferred >= 126)
      return 55;
  }

  if (current > preferred || preferred > 17)
    return 55;
  return g();
}

Obviously, this affects optimization-dependent warnings later in the
compilation.

I wonder why this happens.  Shouldn't gimplification be roughly
target-independent?

It turns out that it's not gimplification, but fold which is the culprit. In fold-const.c:fold_truth_andor, we have this code:

  if (LOGICAL_OP_NON_SHORT_CIRCUIT
      && (code == TRUTH_AND_EXPR
          || code == TRUTH_ANDIF_EXPR
          || code == TRUTH_OR_EXPR
          || code == TRUTH_ORIF_EXPR))
    {
…
      /* Transform (A AND-IF B) into (A AND B), or (A OR-IF B)
	 into (A OR B).
	 For sequence point consistancy, we need to check for trapping,
	 and side-effects.  */
      else if (code == icode && simple_operand_p_2 (arg0)
               && simple_operand_p_2 (arg1))
	return fold_build2_loc (loc, ncode, type, arg0, arg1);

rs6000 defines LOGICAL_OP_NON_SHORT_CIRCUIT as 0, so this code never runs, and the gimplifier produces two separate if statements.
