Yes, you may be right. The only reason for -floop-stripmine would be
functional testing of the loop strip mining pass, but it will never give
a performance improvement.

-floop-stripmine and -floop-interchange are not implemented at the
moment, but I did not want to remove them, as they may be implemented
later. I thought I could implement them over a weekend, but I could not
test them because of other bugs. So I thought the time is better spend
in fixing remaining graphite bugs.
But maybe we should print some error messages, if s.o. uses these flags.

See you
Tobias
