Quite possibly.  Anyway, it's not the extra block I'm concerned about,
but the extra jump; until and unless someone comes up with a clever
way of representing this in the debug information, we need to emit
cmpl / jgt / jmp instead of cmpl / jle at -O0.  Any way you can make
GCC do that, I'm satisfied.  It would be nice to avoid the extra block
if we can do that.
