Well, it depends on how you define "current languages" and "difficult to
determine".
No, it depends on noticing the word "many" in there. ;-)
I'm talking about C aliased pointers, interrupts/signals happening in

imperative languages with built-in high-level looping constructs (like
SQL) can make it much easier for the compiler.
