So I wondered, why not always use the graphite dependency analysis in
parloops. (Of course you could use -floop-parallelize-all, but that also
changes the heuristic). So I wrote a patch for parloops to use graphite
dependency analysis by default (so without -floop-parallelize-all), but
while testing found out that all the reduction test-cases started failing
because the modifications graphite makes to the code messes up the parloops
reduction analysis.

Then I came up with this patch, which:
- first runs a parloops pass, restricted to reduction loops only,
- then runs graphite dependency analysis
- followed by a normal parloops pass run.

This way, we get to both:
- compile the reduction testcases as before, and
- profit from the better graphite dependency analysis otherwise.

graphite dependence analysis is too slow to be enabled unconditionally.
(read: hours in some simple cases - see bugzilla)

Haha, "cool"!  ;-)

Maybe it is still reasonable to use graphite to analyze the code inside
OpenACC kernels regions -- maybe such code can reasonably be expected to
not have the properties that make its analysis lengthy?  So, Tom, could
you please identify and check such PRs, to get an understanding of what
these properties are?

Like the one in PR62113 or 53852 or 59121.

PR62113 and PR59121 do not reproduce for me on trunk.

PR53852 does reproduce for me (to the point that I had to reset my laptop).

Thanks,
