A bit of bikeshedding:

While it's obviously a bug, I'm not really sure it's useful to truncate before
emitting the widening shift.  Do we save an instruction vs. the regular
non-widening shift by doing so?

I think my original (failed) idea was this pattern to be an intermediate/bridge
pattern that never splits.  Once we need to "split" maybe the regular shift is
better or at least similar?
