Because it is neither necessary not wanted. It's expensive.
As Michael said, its unswitching that does not preserve loop-closed
SSA form, so at most rewrite_into_loop_closed_ssa should go _there_,
not in copyprop. But, please try to fixup unswitching instead
(note I'm not going to approve a patch adding rewrite_into_loop_closed_ssa
for 4.5, obviously the problems are at most latent).
Richard.
