It's not. At first it was a way of debugging the gimplifier, then it
became a quick and dirty way of comparing tree-ssa against
something-resembling-mainline when running SPEC. I never modified the
SPEC scripts to do comparison runs between different compilers. I
should.
Unless any FE folk have a use for it, I'd say we should discard the
flag.
