Hi Jeff,

You might also peek at the RTL gcse/pre code which is also LCM based and
has the same class of problems.

I found a similar approach to take care of this in gcse.cc/pre_edge_insert with 
some comments as below.

   /* We can't insert anything on an abnormal and
        critical edge, so we insert the insn at the end of
        the previous block. There are several alternatives
        detailed in Morgans book P277 (sec 10.5) for
        handling this situation.  This one is easiest for
        now.  */

if (eg->flags & EDGE_ABNORMAL)
   insert_insn_end_basic_block (index_map[j], bb);
else
   {
       insn = process_insert_insn (index_map[j]);
       insert_insn_on_edge (insn, eg);
   }

It looks the insert_insn_end_basic_block is designed to handle the ABNORMAL 
edge by inserting at end of previous block from the comments.
That's probably dead code at this point. IIRC rth did further work in this space because inserting in the end of the block with the abnormal edge isn't semantically correct.

It's been 20+ years, but IIRC he adjusted the PRE bitmaps so that we never would need to do an insertion on an abnormal edge. Search for EDGE_ABNORMAL in gcse.cc.
