I think this is the big question we need to answer; there's other
places were we rely upon ISO's standards to enable optimization.  But
this one just feels a little different...  Or maybe I'm shy after the
kernel security problem caused by relying on dereferenced pointer not
being null.

I could easily see not enabling the switch by default for a period of
time, or enabling the optimization by default along with some kind of
warning.
