I don't buy this. Whether things are highlighted or comments added seems like
something that the consumer should decide. ie. the compiler generates:
1) {points at for loop} Loop not vectorized because of data dependency
1a) {points at C[i]} Conflicting data element
1b) {points at C[i+3]} Conflicting data element
