I know.  I just don't see a specific reason why I should do this
before other work, because IIUC the PREDICATE_CODES vs.
predicates.md is a quite local change; it only affects
generators and generated code and it's not like it's blocking
other work in GCC.  It's just a matter of priority. I'll get to
it and I'm thankful for Kazu-san's work; I'll probably use this
patch as is.  I'm puzzled why you think you need to
condescendingly paint this out to me as an urgent "maintainance"
(sic) issue.
