In particular, it's important that we create the "fallback" atomic at this point
(which we produce if the transfer function didn't produce a value for the
expression) so that it is placed in the correct environment.

Previously, we processed the terminator condition in the `TerminatorVisitor`,
which put the fallback atomic in a copy of the environment that is produced as
input for the _successor_ block, rather than the environment for the block
containing the expression for which we produce the fallback atomic.

As a result, we produce different fallback atomics every time we process the
successor block, and hence we don't have a consistent representation of the
terminator condition in the flow condition.

This patch includes a test (authored by ymand@) that fails without the fix.
