The checks inserted before returns also prevented potential tail-call optimizations. This incremental change introduces options to control checking at each of these previously-missed checkpoints. Unless disabled, a cleanup is introduced to check when an exceptions escapes a subprogram. To avoid disrupting sibcall optimizations, when they are enabled, checks are introduced before calls whose results are immediately returned, whether or not they are ultimately optimized. If enabled, checks are introduced before noreturn calls and exception raises, or only before nothrow noreturn calls.
