I am still somewhat worried about possible use with C++ programs where
we will kill all inlining of comdats, but I guess we could discuss that
when it becomes an issue.
+
+      /* FIXME: disable unreachable code removal.  */

Disabling unreachable code removal will really introduce a lot of extra
dead code, can't live patches just provide what they need if the code
was earlier removed.
+
+      /* discovery of functions/variables with no address taken.  */
+      if (opts_set->x_flag_ipa_reference_addressable
+         && opts->x_flag_ipa_reference_addressable)
+       error_at (loc,
+                 "%<-fipa-reference-addressable%> is incompatible with "
+                 "%<-flive-patching=inline-only-static|inline-clone%>");
+      else
+       opts->x_flag_ipa_reference_addressable = 0;
+
+      /* ipa stack alignment propagation.  */
+      if (opts_set->x_flag_ipa_stack_alignment
+         && opts->x_flag_ipa_stack_alignment)
+       error_at (loc,
+                 "%<-fipa-stack-alignment%> is incompatible with "
+                 "%<-flive-patching=inline-only-static|inline-clone%>");
+      else
+       opts->x_flag_ipa_stack_alignment = 0;

Shall we also disable nothrow or we will worry about C++ only ter?

Patch is OK,
thanks!
