In that case, I don't suppose it would be possible for IMCC to allow
function calls in an "if expr goto LABEL" statement, ie:

  ...
  if _some_test() goto LABEL
  ...
  ...

I for one would find that particularly useful. ;)

That is probably pushing the bounds of "intermediate code" towards "high-level" land. :)

Since IMC is supposed to be a language for compilers (not humans) to emit,
what you really need is a nice fat high level language. Now why don't
we have one of those handy..... ;)
