  24 The <I>bore</I> program does miscellaneous code transformations.
  25 The distinguishing feature of <I>bore</I> compared to other
  26 transformation programs such as <I>porky</I> is that <I>bore</I> does
  27 not build expression trees. Instead it maintains the lowlevel
  28 instruction ordering.

  33 <B>-spill-instr-ops</B><BR>
  34
  35 This causes all instruction operands (the structure
  36 of expression trees) to be spilled to variables.

  40 <DT><B>-build-instr-ops</B></DT></DT>
  41 <DD>
  42 This causes instruction operands to replace singledef,
  43 single-use variables wherever possible, more
  44 or less undoing the results of the <B>-spill-instr-ops</B>
  45 pass and allowing expression trees to be built by
  46 later passes.
  47 </DD>
  48
  49 <DT><B>-spill-prefix</B> <I>pref</I></DT></DT>
  50 <DD>
  51 This causes the <B>-spill-instr-ops</B> pass to use <I>pref</I>
  52 as the prefix for spill variables it creates. The
  53 new variables will use <I>pref</I> followed by a positive
  54 decimal integer as their names. The default prefix
  55 is ``_spill''.
