Hey, I had completed suppressed my memory of the obscene things I've done
with generated dummy functions to contain asms using only "i" constraints,
-S, and sed on the output for just this reason!  Thanks for reminding me of
all that pain!  It wasn't an opportune time to whine about the state of GCC
in the decade that I dealt with that, but perhaps that time has finally come.
