Yeah, its incredibly annoying to just disable optimization for something
without commenting *why* its disabled. i.e. compiler itself just SEGVs
and you can't compile without throttling it back vs some subtle runtime
problem, hopefully all of our contemporary ones comment why they're
different from the norm.
