<!-- Thank you for filing a bug report! Please provide a short summary of the bug, along with any information you feel relevant to replicating the bug. --I tried this code: Generates: But generates super clean assembly: <!-- If you're using the stable version of the compiler, you should also check if the bug also exists in the beta or nightly versions. --:
Godbolt:
It should be fixed by
Fixed in beta/1.77: The LLVM 18 upgrade is in 1.78, so I'm not sure why. label +E-needs-test
