Very, very cool :)
So assuming that the sibling call patch will get re-approved soonish, we
are having only the dead RTL inliner and EH lowering passes killing CFG
in the early stages of compilation..

I see there is no entry for duplicate_block, but that is just an
ommision.  Please add it there (either by update of this patch or
incrementally depending whehter you will need new revision of it).
This is definitly something we want to hookize.

I am not very happy about move_block_after hook.  If it exists, it
should be somewhat unified with cfglayout way of reordering, but it
probably ought not be needed at first place.  We shall be completely
independent on the order of BBS on tree level...

Hmm perhaps it is because you want loops to be lienar regions at RTL
evel.  This problem seems to be more general as we do create basic
blocks in arbitrary order now so if we want to be serious about RTL loop
optimizer we need to reorder blocks during emiting the loop notes, but I
guess it is moot unless your plans to rewrite cfgloop fails miserably
(and that would be real disaster so I hope it won't happen). 
So perhaps we can keep it this way temporarily...

Thanks!
Honza
