It would require bounds loading for aggr before __internal_bind_bounds
anyway.  So, why not to do it in expand?  I just need to mark calls
with a flag (which you've proposed few times already) to let expand
know when it should load bounds.  Having SSA aggregates would be nice
but I suspect it has much higher impact then loading bounds in expand.
 I want to try simpler variant first.

Thanks,
