I would avoid the words safe and unsafe, because

I agree, but term "unsafe" is less important then fact that developer will have only one gcc option to use in release mode. If he is doing something "special" (like math-related app) only _then_ he needs to learn and tune gcc options. Instead of O3_unsafe it can be O3_non_iso, O3_ni, O3ni ... whatever.
