Today Jeff Law (many thanks to him!) approved a big patch I wanted to commit

I am going to submit the patch removing the old RA for review today. Sorry
for long waiting.
Vladimir, have you had chance to look at supporting
LOAD_EXTEND_OP (implicit sign-extension) in IRA?

I'm guessing no, but hope it's not forgotten.
It seems I missed that, sorry. I'll look at the problem on this week.
May be a patch I committed today solves the problem (it permits to work
IRA without defining IRA_COVER_CLASSES). I'll check it later.
I intend to write a PR this weekend if you need specific
information.
(I'm still ok with removing support for it, but combine needs
fixing too, to not (ab)use it.)
