... actually, this one.  There's no reason to differentiate between strong
and weak compare-and-swap when computing boolval.

Looks very similar to what I wrote, except

I missed this bit

and instead pulled cond out of the return from rs6000_generate_compare.

Results look good.

Has anyone bootstrapped and regression-tested the patch?

Thanks, David

Yes, I did so last night on gcc110.

Thanks!
