Comment(by dterei):
OK, I had a pass at this. The framework is in the file
'docs/users_guide/using.xml', there are a bunch of 'TODO' markers in the
file to indicate what needs to be filled in. I've documented a few
optimisation passes myself but many are remaining.
The other change I think we should make is that the existing documentation
in that section used a mixture of positive and negative flag
specification.
e.g some flags were describe as '-fno-cse' and others as '-fliberate-
case'. I think we should just document the positive case and indicate at
the top that you can turn all of them into negative cases with '-fno-*'.
