Hi again,

Thanks for your work so far!

Yeah I don't see it. I'll have to look at compiler debug dumps, but I
don't have any working 4.9 around, and I cannot reproduce this with
either older or newer compilers.

It is complainig that constrain_operands just does not work *at all* on
this "m<>" constraint apparently, which doesn't make much sense.

I'll try later when I have more time, sorry :-/
