It or something similar has apparently been upstreamed to clang as -fbounds-safety. I don't know if they're the same, but the RFC on -fbounds-safety does give some credit to the author of Fil-C, who also took credit for firebloom on this thread as well.

Thanks for clarifying, I had found a past HN comment stating they are the same.
