[fpc-devel] x86: Efficiency of opposing CMOVs

[J. Gareth Moreton]

Should work now.  There's a weird quirk with certain kinds of references 
that get implicitly converted into immediates (constants) by the 
assembler, but since CMOV doesn't support immediates, they remain 
references and cause different code to be generated.  x86_64-linux 
passes on my computer now.
