Ok, bad example.  I wanted something where we *do* have a 
dependence-distance, and some of the references are co-aligned
and some aren't.  Perhaps

	a[i] += a[i+4];
	a[i+N+1] += a[i+N+5];

But I guess the vector being per-statement means that's ok.  We'll
have [i] and [i+4] on one list and [i+N+1] and [i+N+5] on another,
but ne'er the twain shall meet.  Correct?

In which case this is all ok.  Sorry for the delay.
