Has anyone built a debugger that allows debugging of optimized
compiled code at the source level? That is, a debugger that reverses
the transformations made by the compiler, so that execution looks to
the user like results are stored promptly, etc. (I realize that
sometimes this is not possible, e.g., once a variable is "dead", its
value may be thrown away. But then, the debugger could capture and
store the value...)
