Jeremy Hylton <jeremy at alum.mit.edu>:
I think it would only need to check that any path through the loop has a no net effect on stack depth -- before branching back to the beginning of the loop, it must pop everything it pushed.
If the branching is sufficiently spaghettoid, it might have trouble identifying any coherent loops or paths.
