Nah.  It can't be too hard to implicitly insert a

(set (match_operand 0 "anything_goes_p" "X") (match_dup 0))

pattern in every back end, even behind the scenes.

We might as well do this for USEs, CLOBBERs, ASMs (and DEBUG_INSNs),
and phase out some of the special treatment they get at various places
for not being recognizable.
