This is very easily tested. I wrote a paper about this: Usenix
Supercomputer Workshop Sept. 1988. Basically, very few machines (compiler)
do this. No one tests to make certain they do it. So it tends to
be a lot of hot air. It seems to get lots of lip service. I won't
name the compilers which claim to do it but don't.
Another gross generalization from
