--- Comment #5 from Theodoros Theodoridis <theodort at inf dot ethz.ch> --- (In reply to Richard Biener from comment #4) > Alternatively you can put __attribute__((hot)) on 'main' which we otherwise > consider cold. Maybe that's a good idea for future DCE regression searches? Thanks for the feedback. IIRC, I have reported at least one more case where renaming 'main' would make the issue go away. So if adding __attribute__((hot)) makes sense, then I'll include it when searching.
