+/// CloneBasicBlock - Return a copy of the specified basic block, but without
+/// embedding the block into a particular function.  The block returned is an
+/// exact copy of the specified basic block, without any remapping having been
+/// performed.  Because of this, this is only suitable for applications where
+/// the basic block will be inserted into the same function that it was cloned
+/// from (loop unrolling would use this, for example).
+///
+/// Also, note that this function makes a direct copy of the basic block, and
+/// can thus produce illegal LLVM code.  In particular, it will copy any PHI
+/// nodes from the original block, even though there are no predecessors for the
+/// newly cloned block (thus, phi nodes will have to be updated).  Also, this
+/// block will branch to the old successors of the original block: these
+/// successors will have to have any PHI nodes updated to account for the new
+/// incoming edges.
+///
+/// The correlation between instructions in the source and result basic blocks
+/// is recorded in the ValueMap map.
+///
+/// If you have a particular suffix you'd like to use to add to any cloned
+/// names, specify it as the optional second parameter.
