I can't explain why it's done in the present way (using a generated
symbol rather than a hard-coded one); maybe because cgen .cpu-level
symbols cannot normally refer to normal C ones.

They are done, working as far as I know.  However, they are not used
much: their capability is not needed or just not appreciated widely.
