[...] Dude, you are reading way more into my message than you should. My point was simply that the existing ports do not make a very good test suite for changes in this area, since they tend not to exercise this part of cgen particularly hard. A change may look sensible for simple ports, but be actually be incorrect, when considering cgen's behavior in complex cases. This is not to hold anyone back, just to make them aware that "doing the right thing" is not that well-defined in cgen land. - FChE
