I am still waiting for an actual test case where ToT or 3.5 didn't
already bail out. So far this is strictly a regression. Code that
compiled before failed and as the given example, some code no longer can
be expressed optimally. It has been discussed on IRC that the x86
backend is somewhat weak with regards to range checks of immediates, but
that is a problem with or without inline asm constrraints. In summary:
I'd like to see this reverted for ToT and 3.6.
