I think this means that the comment at the declaration of has_simduid in
function.h needs to be updated.

I see that there are other places in the compiler that propagate the has_simduid
property. Now that the property is tied to just the presence of GOMP_SIMD_xyz
IFNs, won't those other places need changes too?

I wonder why this property is propagated with such fine granularity in the first
place. Wouldn't it be simpler and almost as efficient to propagate it on the
function basis, i.e. when inlining A into B set it on B if A had it, without
regard for whether uses in A have already been DCE'd?

Thanks.
