[Thanks for the very detailed plan.]

I think I can try to implement what you have sketched, but only for mainline,
as I'll first need to familiarize myself further with Tree-SSA and the
vectorizer, and this is low priority for the time being.  I probably won't be
able to do so in time for the 4.1 release.

So it's up to you to decide what to do for the 4.1 branch.  I personally think
that punting would be just fine there, at least until we have a real fix.  So
I'd lean towards installing the workaround on the 4.1 branch only and leaving
the PR open until you or I get a chance to really tackling the problem.

What do you think?
