Not sure what your new tests should do - the patch lacks an update to the comment. Note that this predicate is first of all used in loop header copying to say whether we should avoid copying a header. In this case the condition is not what should prevent copying of the header, but your patch seems to make it so, no? So, please clarify your change. Richard.
