Sure.  But just recognizing (for this particular case) will just move 
the fault from a failure to split to a failure to recognize. From my 
wanderings in the elimination code, I don't see that it has a path that 
would allow it to reasonably handle this case -- ie, if the insn does 
not recognize, what then?   Conceptually we need to generate an 
input-reload but I don't see a way to do that in the elimination code.  
Maybe Vlad knows how it ought to be handled.

Agreed.
