Yeah, I was a bit worried about that. Gcc sometimes does insane things.
We literally just tested that the asm should only _ever_ be generated with
a constant value, but if some gcc dead-code removal thing doesn't work, it
will then screw up and try to generate the asm even for a non-constant
thing.
The fairly trivial fix is probably to just change the "i" to "ir", safe in
the knowledge that any _sane_ case will never use the "r" possibility. I
suspect even your insane case will end up then killing the bad choice
later.
