Sorry, I forgot to note in my cover letter that patches 2 and 3 want to be
squashed before merging for this very reason. I've keep them separate for
easier review.

This should be fine for the pipeline handler case, but the IPA case is a bit
more awkward to do in the IPA case as it appends ipa_name and
enabled_ipa_modules
in the outer loop.  Can you suggest a neat way to fix that?
