Hum.  We do.  I hadn't noticed before.  Bother.  I guess leave them

I don't think so.  :-(  When I was brutally reminded of this fact
when doing recent Cygnus work I added about 50 of them.

If we can agree on an rtl representation, Jan's chomping at the bit
to clean this up correctly.  Though I guess this change shouldn't be
in 1.2 no matter how fast he can work.
