+Take the following code (from 
+http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16541):
+
+extern unsigned char first_one[65536];
+int FirstOnet(unsigned long long arg1)
+{
+  if (arg1 >> 48)
+    return (first_one[arg1 >> 48]);
+  return 0;

+
+
+The following code is currently generated:
+FirstOnet:
+        movl    8(%esp), %eax
+        cmpl    $65536, %eax
+        movl    4(%esp), %ecx

+.LBB1_2:        # UnifiedReturnBlock
+        xorl    %eax, %eax
+        ret
+
+There are a few possible improvements here:
+1. We should be able to eliminate the dead load into %ecx
+2. We could change the "movl 8(%esp), %eax" into
+   "movzwl 10(%esp), %eax"; this lets us change the cmpl
+   into a testl, which is shorter, and eliminate the shift.
+
+We could also in theory eliminate the branch by using a conditional
+for the address of the load, but that seems unlikely to be worthwhile
+in general.

+LLVM currently generates the following on x86:

+        movd    %eax, %xmm0

+        pshufd  $0, %xmm0, %xmm0

+On x86, LLVM generates the following:
+doload64:

+        movl    $0, 4(%esp)

+LLVM should instead generate something more like the following:
