+  struct loops *loops;
+  int loop_state_flags = 0;
+  if (dest_cfun->x_current_loops == NULL)
+    {
+      /* Initialize an empty loop tree.  */
+      loops = ggc_cleared_alloc<struct loops> ();
+      set_loops_for_fn (dest_cfun, loops);
+    }
+  else
+    {
+      loops = dest_cfun->x_current_loops;
+      loop_state_flags = loops->state;
+    }
+
+  if (loops->tree_root == NULL)
+    {
+      init_loops_structure (dest_cfun, loops, 1);
+      loops->state |= loop_state_flags;
+    }
+
+  loops->state |= LOOPS_MAY_HAVE_MULTIPLE_LATCHES;

this looks twisted just because you do a half-way init of the loop tree here:

+  if (loop->inner)
+    {
+      struct function *child_cfun = DECL_STRUCT_FUNCTION (child_fn);
+      struct loops *loops = ggc_cleared_alloc<struct loops> ();
+      set_loops_for_fn (child_cfun, loops);
+      child_cfun->x_current_loops->state = LOOPS_NEED_FIXUP;
+    }

why not unconditionally initialize the loop tree properly in autopar?
