+If OpenMP generation (@option{-fopenmp}) is enabled, this pass lowers
+OpenMP constructs into GIMPLE.
+
+Lowering of OpenMP constructs involves creating replacement
+expressions for local variables that have been mapped using data
+sharing clauses, exposing the control flow of most synchronization
+directives and adding region markers to facilitate the creation of the

+If OpenMP generation (@option{-fopenmp}) is enabled, this pass expands
