   It still makes sense to submit a PR (which stands for Problem   
   Report) so people can look at it when they want to improve   
   code generation.  I have submitted quite a few of these - of the   
   733 PRs I have submitted so far, 120 were missed-optimization.

   Keyword wrong-code then, or suboptimal code generation?  The latter   
   is also classified as missed-optimiztation.
