           Summary: Useless select not removed

In the following fairly trivial program, the select is obviously completely
useless. However, it is not removed when running opt -std-compile-opts.

define i32 @run(i1 %C) nounwind  {
        br i1 %C, label %exit, label %body

body:           ; preds = %0
        %A = select i1 %C, i32 10, i32 11               ; <i32> [#uses=1]
        ret i32 %A

exit:           ; preds = %0
        ret i32 10
}


If I do a conditional branch instead of a select, simplifycfg seems to catch
that and remove the conditional. It makes sense that simlifycfg doesn't remove
a select, but I'm not sure which pass should catch this. I guess SCCP or
CondProp would be a good condidate?
