The optimizer is built into the compiler and it makes several assumptions
about the generated code, so it may not be used for generic assembler code. On
the other side, I cannot remember having a need to run an optimizer over hand
written assembler code.
As far as I understand it, the whole thing with hand written assembler code
is, that it is optimized by the programmer.
What would you expect such an optimizer to do? Can give me an example from
your standalone optimizer? Maybe I need such a thing and don't know it:-)
