I am concerned about this behaviour.  I understand that mixing
synthetic CFI statements and real ones would be a bad idea, but
I think that silently ignoring the real ones is a mistake.  At
the very least you ought to generate a warning message letting
the user know that their cfi instructions are being ignored.

Cheers
