your intended control dependencies.

 identical, as noted earlier, the compiler could pull this store outside
 of the 'if' statement.
 
+You must also be careful not to rely too much on boolean short-circuit
+evaluation.  Consider this example:
+
+	q = ACCESS_ONCE(a);
+	if (a || 1 > 0)
+		ACCESS_ONCE(b) = 1;
+
+Because the second condition is always true, the compiler can transform
+this example as following, defeating control dependency:
+
+	q = ACCESS_ONCE(a);
+	ACCESS_ONCE(b) = 1;
+
+This example underscores the need to ensure that the compiler cannot
+out-guess your code.  More generally, although ACCESS_ONCE() does force
+the compiler to actually emit code for a given load, it does not force
+the compiler to use the results.

 Finally, control dependencies do -not- provide transitivity.  This is
 demonstrated by two related examples, with the initial values of
 x and y both being zero:
