I believe it's only for a) case, since warning stays along with the cost
model report that says only about relative scalar and vector costs of
iteration. The case of exits and vectorization capabilities is handled earlier,
since we have some vector code here.

Will try to attach the patch instead of copy-paste here.

took one of yours.

This is strange to me, since it worked as I pass the OPT_Wopenmp_simd
to the warning_at (). It does:
   show warinig with -Wopenmp-simd
   doesn't show warning with -Wall -Wno-openmp-simd

damn, right! I believe 'a' since simd starts with consonant.

done.
