I would like to express my concerns also (already stated by Stan and
Matt). Before this patch goes in, it would be highly helpful to see
discussions about the problem, and the proposed solution. I think
this is such a dramatic addition that it wouldn't be wise to let it go
it just as if it were a basic improvement to the compiler.
