I think we are mixing two things - one is that a single transform like jump threading produces a stmt copy and when we emit a diagnostic on that copied statement we want to tell the user the condition under which the copy is executed. That "condition" can be actually a sequence of conditionals. I wanted to point out that a diagnostic_path instance could be used to describe such complex condition. But then the other thing I wanted to address with the link to a previous copy_history - that's when a statement gets copied twice, for example by two distinct jump threading optimizations. Like when dumping the inlining decisions for diagnostics we could dump the logical "and" of the conditions of the two threadings. Since we have a single location per GIMPLE stmt we'd have to keep a "stack" of copy events associated with it. That's the linked list (I think a linked list should work fine here). I realize things may get a bit "fat", but eventually we are not duplicating statements that much. I do hope we can share for example a big diagnostic_path when we duplicate a basic block during threading and use one instance for all stmts in such block copy (IIRC we never release locations or their ad-hoc data, we just make sure to never use locations with ad-hoc data pointing to BLOCKs that we released, but the linemap data will still have pointers in "dead" location entries, right?)
