Yes. People have reported in the past that gcc still contains
code generation bugs with -Ox , x > 2, or maybe even x >= 2
on some architectures. Maybe we can spot all the problems
in our code and at least document them so that the gcc-maintainters
have a chance to fix them (if we don't have any gcc-savvy
people in our team).
