Because we can't tell easily which basic block an insn is in.  So if we
insert after insn X, we have to check all basic blocks whether X is the end
of the basic block.  Other solutions are possible; e.g. regmove already
allocates a regmove_bb_head array that indicates which insns are basic block
heads.  However, that is of fixed size and can't hold any new insns generated
during regmove (I'm not even convinced that the code in copy_src_to_dest
never accesses it outside its range).
All solutions I can think of are awkward.

And these never get changed?  That sounds better, of course.
