 I'm no longer in a position to produce the code.
 
 The specific example looked like:
 
 struct foo {
   int f(int i) {
     ... // no branches or returns
     if( 0 = i ) {
         return 17;
     }
     ...
   }
 };
 
 int bar(...) {
     foo f;
     if( f.f(0) ) {        // the branch in f was eliminated by constant propagation
         ....                  // but the branch testing f's return value was not.
     }
 }
