+	 If we need more than two dep instructions then we lose.  A 6
+	 insn sequence mov mask1,mov mask2,shl;;and,and;;or is better than
+	 mov;;dep,shr;;dep,shr;;dep.  The former can be executed in 3 cycles,
+	 the latter is 6 cycles on an Itanium (TM) processor, because there is
+	 only one function unit that can execute dep and shr immed.
+
+	 If we only need two dep instruction, then we still lose.
+	 mov;;dep,shr;;dep is still 4 cycles.  Even if we optimize away
+	 the unnecessary mov, this is still undesirable because it will be
+	 hard to optimize, and it creates unnecessary pressure on the I0
+	 function unit.  */
