What version of GCC, if not the mainline, we don't care that much as
the new tree based loop and rtl based loop (-floop-optimize2) optimizers
don't implement as much as the old one did.  And -floop-optimize2 turns
off the old one.  Also the loop optimizers are still in development like
the rest of GCC.

Really -floop-optimize2 turns off the old non CFG RTL based loop 
optimizers
and nothing more.
