Are you guys going to use CSP to implement SSA for AOT?

Agreed with the sentiment; however, two points:

  * we can have a CPS with let / letrec / * operators that bind a number
    of values in unspecified order, and have a pass later that fixes
    their order.

  * code motion passes like CSE depend on effects analysis, and can
    often commute some operations

Anyway, violent agreement!

Andy
