Re: [PATCH] Disable CSE skip-blocks

I should also point out that the cumulative benefit of the changes that disabling skip-blocks makes possible actually results in smaller (and faster) code than the current trunk. So these missed code transformations really are not very interesting. Besides, the number of differences is smaller than the changes due to random patches to the trunk.
