Hi Jeff,

Thanks for your prompt feedback :-)

No, no particular reason. Just an implicit thought that having a new
state as close as possible from the previous one was of interest.

Understood, thanks!

Searching for tablejump related prototypes in rtl.h led to
declarations for functions in rtlanal.c. Wouldn't that be a
better place than rtl.c for the new function ?

Thanks in advance,

Olivier
