Well, for the comma operator there might be no reason. However, it would
be nice if one could generate arbitrary code of the form
(x) (operator) (y)
for any C/C++ values x and y and any operator. Two particular cases I
encountered where this would be useful:
1. "x = y" where x is something that Cython does not consider an lvalue.
2. "x || y" because Cython's "x or y" generates complicated code which
isn't optimized as well as "x || y".
