No, that wasn't the point.  Both patches fix the problem.

This final point is not directly related to the problem.
Currently, CFG cleanup will stop itself from doing certain
propagations because it is not ready to deal with an out-of-date
SSA form after itself.

My point is that we could teach it to update the SSA form, if
needed.
