Follow on: If then_instructions is empty, is there any benefit in
inverting the if conditional and moving the else_instructions into the
place of then_instructions?

Yeah.  I think in that case, i965 would ultimately emit the assembly:

if(8) ...
else(8)
...actual code...
endif(8)

which is silly.  This is a good place to patch that up.

(I could've sworn we did that already, but I can't seem to find it.)
