--- Comment #7 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The trunk branch has been updated by Jason Merrill <ja...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:28db36e2cfca1b7106adc8d371600fa3a325c4e2 commit r14-1624-g28db36e2cfca1b7106adc8d371600fa3a325c4e2 Author: Jason Merrill <ja...@redhat.com> Date: Wed Jun 7 05:15:02 2023 -0400 c++: allow NRV and non-NRV returns [PR58487] Now that we support NRV from an inner block, we can also support non-NRV returns from other blocks, since once the NRV is out of scope a later return expression can't possibly alias it. This fixes 58487 and half-fixes 53637: now one of the returns is elided, but not the other. Fixing the remaining xfails in these testcases will require a very different approach, probably involving a full tree/block walk from finalize_nrv, and check_return_expr only adding to a list of potential return variables.
