In Ada, the principle is that the compiler  has an obligation of result, 
i.e. that the "external effect" (see 1.1.3(9)) of the compiled program 
must be the same as the effect defined by the canonical execution.

Basically, this means that the compiler can do any optimization provided 
the result is correct. Going farther than that would mean allowing the 
compiler to generate incorrect programs... Maybe that's what C/C++ 
compilers are doing ;-)
