We start with insn_cost 12 for 6: r121:TI=[r124:DI] REG_DEAD r124:DI insn_cost 4 for 9: r122:DF=r121:TI#0 insn_cost 4 for 10: r123:DF=r121:TI#8 REG_DEAD r121:TI What we really want is a 6+9+10 combination. But combine does not currently try to do such a thing (both 9 and 10 link back via the same reg). It does try to do 6+9, but that needs to do a 2->2 combine, which it doesn't do because it started off with a move insn, it needs one in the end as well, and even if we didn't have such restrictions for 2->2, the insn_costs for the insns you end up with is bigger than that for what you started with (only when also combining it with insn 10 it becomes a lot lower). So, I'll see if I can easily make it try 6+9+10 here.
