Hm, I don't see any assertions in the commit ...

I should really have used something like NV50_MAX_INSN_SRCS in the loop
in the old code there (nv50_pc_regalloc), but it's scheduled for removal
anyway ...

As for the optimization pass, I don't see how the compiler can
statically determine that the array will overflow, and it wasn't
supposed to (maximum store size is 16 bytes, and minimum size of a Value
(with TGSI input) is 4 bytes, makes 4 Values.

But you're right I should have been more careful with that code, it's
... been written at a point where I just wanted to be done with it (but
still include enough optimizations so as to not produce worse code than
the old solution).

Thanks for fixing, Christoph

hm, I need to make my compiler spit out better/more warnings ...
