The open projects page at <http://llvm.org/OpenProjects.html>
lists superblock formation as a possible idea for profile-guided
transformations. Is anyone working on formation of regions
consisting of multiple basic blocks? I don't recall any posts on
llvmdev to that effect.
It would be quite useful to have a general facility for grouping basic
blocks within a function, as that could be reused for traces,
superblocks, hyperblocks, etc.

Yes it would, especially for ia64. I am not aware of anyone working on this area using llvm though.
