Between ":s" and ":v", there is a subtle difference. ":s" only ensures interior
transform does not insert any new stmts, but this is not true for final one.

Code snippet generated for (A * C) +- (B * C) -> (A+-B) * C:
 
          gimple_seq *lseq = seq;
          if (lseq
              && (!single_use (captures[0])
                  || !single_use (captures[3])))
            lseq = NULL;
          if (__builtin_expect (!dbg_cnt (match), 0)) goto next_after_fail621;
          if (__builtin_expect (dump_file && (dump_flags & TDF_FOLDING), 0))  
fprintf (dump_file, "Applying pattern %s:%d, %s:%d\n", "match.pd", 2581, 
__FILE__, __LINE__);
          {
            res_op->set_op (MULT_EXPR, type, 2);
            {
              tree _o1[2], _r1;
              _o1[0] = captures[2];
              _o1[1] = captures[4];
              gimple_match_op tem_op (res_op->cond.any_else (), plusminus, 
TREE_TYPE (_o1[0]), _o1[0], _o1[1]);
              tem_op.resimplify (lseq, valueize);

               // lseq has been already set to NULL as ":s" is specified, so
               // interior result is expected to be simple value.
              _r1 = maybe_push_res_to_seq (&tem_op, lseq);

              if (!_r1) goto next_after_fail621;
              res_op->ops[0] = _r1;
            }
            res_op->ops[1] = captures[1];
            res_op->resimplify (lseq, valueize);

            // But final result is not checked, and it could be mapped
            // to binary operation.
            return true;
          }

The new specifier "!" is nearly same as ":v", but also does not
check final result.
