I had a look around, of course. CmmContFlowOpt is not quite a good
example, as it does not generate new blocks (quite obvious from the fact
that there is no UniqSM around to generate the new labels).

Looking at CmmUtils, I guess I could just use
	ofBlockList entry . concatMap myPerBlockOperation . toBlockList

I was expecting something a bit higher level, but maybe it’s that
simple :-)

Thanks!
