An approach is provided in which an information handling system selects an assumption point in a software program corresponding to a compile-time assumption made by a compiler, and selects an assumption violation point in the software program corresponding to a location at which the compile-time assumption can be violated at runtime. The information handling system propagates backwards in the software program from the assumption point and reaches the assumption violation point. The information handling system determines that the assumption point corresponds to a first method and the assumption violation point corresponds to a second method that is different from the first method, and inserts a conditional transition in the software program at the assumption violation point. The information handling system executes a compiled version of the software program that includes the conditional transition.
