Re: [patch, fortran] Introducing -fdump-optimized-tree


Thomas,

I think the patch is OK; however, I agree with Diego that the name is confusing.

fdump-fortran-original and fdump-fortran-optimized sounds good to me.

Looks also fine to me.


Should we keep fdump-parse-tree around as an alias for 4.6, then remove
it for 4.7?

Well, in principle one should really avoid removing flags; thus, we can deprecate it, but I am not sure that we should already remove it in 4.7. (On the other hand, -fdump-parse-tree is presumably extremely rarely used by users and also I hardly every use it - thus, it does not matter as much as removing -fbounds-check in favour of -fcheck=bounds would do.)
