Unlike C, the C++ FE creates an extra BLOCK around the BLOCK with BLOCK_VARS i in this case, supposedly for the argument scope, so DECL_INITIAL (current_function_decl) is in C the block with i var, but in C++ a block whose BLOCK_SUBBLOCK is block with i var. While the return stmt with the above patch still has correct block, it seems to be actually completely ignored in the end, because what matters actually is epilogue_location (in 4.7 and earlier epilogue_locator). cfgexpand.c and expand_function_end now set epilogue_location to the input_location, when outside of particular stmt expansion, which doesn't have a block, and I assume that DECL_INITIAL is then used. So the question is, can the C++ FE (when?) get rid of the outermost BLOCK and change DECL_INITIAL (perhaps during genericization or so) to the real function body scope instead.
