Hello,
I have two questions:
1) are there some optimizations on tree-ssa that benefit from keeping
all the syntactical structures around.
, instead of just cfg + chain
2) are there some other reasons for keeping them, instead of just having
cfg + chain of statements inside basic blocks
(except for the amount of work neccesary to get rid of them) ?
Unless the answer to one of these questions is yes, why are they still
there? I have just spent half a day fighting with them. Now I
basically understand what's going on and I am disgusted and frightened
by idea of working on it further.
I am mostly decided to postpone the loop optimizer work a bit and
instead clean up this mess. Would someone mind?
Zdenek
