4.9 was released precisely nine years after the first GCC version with
autovectorizer (4.0) and six years after the first GCC version with
`-ftree-vectorize` default to enabled on `-O3` (4.3). We've given GCC
enough time to fix those bugs.
FATE passes here on a x86-64 machine with both GCC 4.9.2 and 5.3.1.
Some optimization hotspots benefit greatly from this change, especially
those without handwritten assembly. For instance, the main function in
vf_phase is now 1.6x faster (1.2x overall).
