I'm seeing infinite recursion in decide_alg on
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu when compiling the C code in
libgo/runtime/go-append.c with -m32, and I suspect that this patch is
the culprit. The file compiles fine without -m32.

decide_alg is being called from ix86_expand_movmem, from
expand_builtin_memcpy, for the call at line 61 of go-append.c.
__builtin_memcpy (n, a.__values, a.__count * element_size);
I'm continuing to look.
