Of course.  I will hold the RC5 for you. I haven't push the change to
master yet. It is only in sparse-next, I can still roll back the change in we
wants to.

Can you show me some C input file that your original patch will do the
right thing and current one will miss the opportunity to simplify?
Even for the case it is just a suspect of producing worse code is fine.
Just point me to some test case, I will investigate and compare the
results.

My guess is that, there is a good chance some where missing a simplify
opportunity. If it does make a difference and I can't fix it in a timely manner.
Let's use your patch and deal with it after the release. In the long run, I
would prefer not using the two pass deletion of the dead bb, if they can
produce the similar level of optimized result.

The original patch does not have test case showing the byte code
difference with this two approach. I need some test examples :-)

Again, glad to know that you are back.
