I thought we had this discussion a while ago, and the result was "MIN 
and MAX are GIMPLE, but we might as well keep the early simplification" 
for some reason.
In fact, I know we had this discussion, and decided that MIN_EXPR and 
MAX_EXPR are GIMPLE, because the linear loop transforms uses it. It 
just didn't require any patches to make this true (because the 
predicates are testing class '2' and whatnot).
