Sorry this took so long to review :-(

On 64-bit BE this leads to *bigger* code, and closer observation shows
that some common sequences degrade on all configs.  This seems to mostly
be about "andc" (and its dot form).  It wasn't costed properly before,
but after your patch, a single instruction is replaced by three.

Could you look into this?
