Ug.

Which means that the error message is all too likely simply be confusing
rather than anything else, since the asm isn't lexically present in the
transaction.

I wonder, not for the first time, if we shouldn't simply turn off early
inlining with TM, or at least of and into tm-related functions, such as
this.  I assume that the IPA inlining pass would take up the slack...
