Hi, I have a question concerning the lowering of return statements during the gimple pass. Shouldnt the TREE_BLOCK () of the representative return expr (which is moved to the end of the function) be updated to reflect its new scope ?. Or on the other hand is TREE_BLOCK () intended to be an accurate reflection of the lexical scope an expression belongs to ?.

Thanks
