What's the purpose of this patch? If it's purely to decrease
compile-time, then it may be ok. If it's an actual change to codegen:
1. Shouldn't register-coalescing be where this is dealt with? That's
the code which is designed to see through super/sub-register copies.
2. It presumably has an effect on code. Could we have a test?
Cheers.
Tim.
