Thanks for you patience Andy.

I agree that asserts I introduced are wrong. It's a pity that there are no
test for this case in regression tests.

However I'm still not sure about the condition I removed:
I->getSUnit()->getHeight() < LiveRegGens[I->getReg()]->getHeight().
Can you give me an example when it does not hold.
