;; This test ensures that MergeConsecutiveStores does not attempt to
;; merge stores or loads when doing so would result in unaligned
;; memory operations (unless the target supports those, e.g. X86).

;; This issue happen in other situations for other targets, but PPC
;; with Altivec extensions was chosen for the test because it does not
;; support unaligned access with AltiVec instructions. If the 4
;; load/stores get merged to an v4i32 vector type severely bad code
;; gets generated: it painstakingly copies the values to a temporary
;; location on the stack, with vector ops, in order to then use
;; integer ops to load from the temporary stack location and store to
;; the final location. Yuck!
