+Loop unswitching. This pass moves the conditional jumps that are invariant
+out of the loops. To achieve this, a duplicate of the loop is created for
+each possible outcome of conditional jump(s). The pass is implemented in
+@file{tree-ssa-loop-unswitch.c}. This pass should eventually replace the
+rtl-level loop unswitching in @file{loop-unswitch.c}, but currently
+the rtl-level pass is not completely redundant yet due to deficiences
+in tree level alias analysis.

The optimizations also use various utility functions contained in
@file{tree-ssa-loop-manip.c}, @file{cfgloop.c}, @file{cfgloopanal.c} and
@file{cfgloopmanip.c}.
