State-Changed-Why:
    @item -fssa
    @opindex fssa
    Perform optimizations in static single assignment form.  Each function's
    flow graph is translated into SSA form, optimizations are performed, and
    the flow graph is translated back from SSA form.  Users should not
    specify this option, since it is not yet ready for production use.
    
    @item -fdce
    @opindex fdce
    Perform dead-code elimination in SSA form.  Requires @option{-fssa}.  Like
    @option{-fssa}, this is an experimental feature.
    
    The SSA optimizations are experimental and should not be
    used.  The options are known to produce incorrect results.
    Until these options are supported for production use, bug
    reports cannot be addressed.  If you want to help with the
    development of these types of optimizations, please contact
    the developers directly.
