Hi Dorit,
thanks for the patch!
I'll leave a review of the contents and the final decision on the filename
to Diego (tree-ssa/vectorization.html or tree-ssa/vector.html perhaps),

Could you try to avoid <i>...</i>, either by omitting it or using <em>?

Ugh. =:-o
Could you omit the trailing es or try something different?
If you'd like, we can introduce a global style sheet (CSS) which defines
a class for this; for example a specialization of <p> for code fragments
like this.

I recommend using anchors which exclusively use lower case letters,
like "#access_pattern", but the choice here is your's. :-)
