Richard,
Thank you! You are right. I noticed on latest trunk the problem in PRE was
already fixed by invoking fold_stmt_inplace.
Unfortunately for this small case, the latest trunk code still can't do SM
for variable pos, because refs_may_alias_p(*D.4074_10, pos) is true, that
is, pos has alias with l[pos].
I think alias analysis should be able to know they don't have alias with
each other, unless there is an assignment statement like "l=&pos;".
Can alias analysis fix the problem?
Thanks,
-Jiangning
