================
Comment at: llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/HotColdSplitting.cpp:411
+          // Ignore successor PHIs without an incoming value from BB.
+          int BBIndex = SuccPhi.getBasicBlockIndex(&BB);
+          if (BBIndex == -1)

No, my example is wrong again. A phi has to have an incoming value from each of its parent's predecessor blocks.
