Or perhaps just a flag on the STATEMENT_LIST that would make it clear the
STATEMENT_LIST wouldn't be there without -g. Or different tree code like
STATEMENT_LIST, except that it would be only this kind of container.
Or disable -gstatement-frontiers by default and declare it -fcompare-debug
incompatible. Do any debug info consumers consume this?
In any case, I'd really like Alex' feedback on this.
