Thanks for the offer!
Sadly it's not a stand-alone testcase, just the original source code extracted
which can be manually compiled and then the generated assembly can be compared
to what it should be.
That said, I think this specific testcase is not really usable in your test environment.

By the way, the bug was just fixed. Details are in bugzilla:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=70188

Thanks,
Helge
