I did that last year and it showed no difference in SPEC 2k6.
When bootstrapping with -O3 and a gcc_unreachable () in the
RTL unswitching path you get some ICEs there but they are
due to different "effective" --param max-unswitch-insns that
is on GIMPLE applied to tree_num_loop_insns () and on RTL
to num_loop_insns ().
I'll go forward with the patch today.

Yeah.
