Ok, I spent today trying to solve this problem.  Although I didn't succeed
in solving it properly, I did at least find a workaround for the one 
instance.
I found that in the failing circumstance, neither of the two things being
compared fell into the "force copy" situation.  I don't know whether that
is right or wrong, but at least I can detect whether a "force copy" was
done.  If no force copy was done, I stop doing the short CLC and let
it do the CLCL instead.  See below where I have introduced the "copy"
variable.  Unfortunately it affects other things, ie good CLCs have been
converted into CLCL also, which is a shame.  However, it may at least
mean the compiler doesn't have a bug as far as the end user is
concerned, ie it generates valid code.

I have a theory that if both displacements in the S-type (ie register plus
displacement) address are non-zero, that something fails.  So the
next thing I will do is see if I can detect just that situation, and stop
it going into the CLC.

Some of these md constructs are beginning to make more sense.  :-)

BFN.  Paul.
