A lot better now.  Instead of the ->aux dance I now prefer to
pass the original loops loop_vinfo to vect_analyze_loop as
optional argument (if non-NULL we analyze the epilogue of that 
loop_vinfo).  OTOH I remember we mainly use it to get at the
original vectorization factor?  So we can pass down an (optional)
forced vectorization factor as well?

Richard.
