Sorry, I can't parse the above :)

The default definition is *only* created if, while renaming the code
into SSA, the very first reference we find of a variable is a USE or a
VUSE.  In that case, if the variable had a default definition assigned
to it already, we just use it, otherwise we create a new one.  So,
default definitions are always artificial and cannot be removed by any
optimization.

Nope.  I keep meaning to add a test for this in tree_verify_flow_info.
