In theory, yes.  But the scheduler (it is ebb scheduler as I understand) 
frequently removes dependencies creating a barrier and all dependencies 
to the insns before the barrier are changed by dependencies to the 
barrier (in this case the barrier is the jump insn and dependency 14->9 
is changed by 14->the jump).  The code should work ok if there is no 
movement down through jump insn (it is how the scheduler, ebb or 
interblock one, should work).   But the scheduler did it for insn #9.

I'll look at this PR today.
