I know that.  And I looked into TCG very closely to figure out how to 
implement just that.  Except then I have to modify TCG to special-case 
movcond to know that DEST is both input and output.  This is *much* more 
work than simply having the back-end use a matching constraint on VFALSE.

One of us is confused.  Why would I have to explicitly detect 
conditional moves?
