Apologies for the very late response.
What I see is that we start with a base_vector_type vector([1,1]) long int
and a count of 2, so ELT_BYTES = 16.
We don't have a TI vector mode (and creating a single-element vector by
interleaving is futile anyway) so the first attempt fails.
The type in the second attempt is vector([1,1]) unsigned long but this
is rejected because of
&& multiple_p (GET_MODE_NUNITS (TYPE_MODE (vector_type)),
│
2, &half_nelts))
Then we try vector([2,2]) unsigned int which "succeeds". This, however,
eventually causes the ICE when we try to build a vector with 0 elements.
Maybe another option would be to decline 1-element vectors right away?
