--- Comment #6 from Martin Sebor <msebor at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
We have seen this sort of thing come up a number of times in the past.  Jeff
and I have discussed changing jump threading to either avoid introducing paths
involving invalid calls, or inserting __builtin_unreachable/__builtin_trap. 
That could not only avoid false positives but also make it possible to emit
more efficient code.
