For the record: Andrew was right and above statement is wrong. The standard
explicitly mandates that unused code must not be removed unless the compiler
can determine that it cannot raise an exception flag [F.8.1]:

: Concern about side effects may inhibit code motion and removal of seemingly
: useless code. For example, in
: #include <fenv.h>
: #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
: void f(double x)
: {
:      /* ... */
:      for (i = 0; i < n; i++) x + 1;
:      /* ... */
: }
: x + 1 might raise floating-point exceptions, so cannot be removed. And since
: the loop body might not execute (maybe 0 ³ n), x + 1 cannot be moved out of
: the loop. (Of course these optimizations are valid if the implementation can
: rule out the nettlesome cases.)
