The issue is that substitute_and_fold runs within BBs statements
folding from last to first.  So most simplifications are done too late
to recognize dependent one. Maybe it would be another way here to have
a flag for substitute_and_fold to indicate that folding pass shall run
first -> last or last->first?

Well, to change type of an SSA-name, if it has single-use might be
another way here.  To have the ability to enter new temp-registers
would be better and avoids the dependency of single use, but well,
range tables don't support that now.
