So this is what I need for current regression tests not to crash
anymore:
Assert(IsA(clause, BooleanTest) ||
IsA(clause, BoolExpr) ||
IsA(clause, RelabelType) ||
IsA(clause, ScalarArrayOpExpr) ||
IsA(clause, OpExpr) ||
IsA(clause, Var));
I'm not confident in my ability to write code to handle all possible
cases right now (obviously there must be more cases that are not covered
by current regression tests), so I'll leave it without the assert since
it handles a couple of the useful cases, but I suspect it could stand
some more improvement.
I guess the question is, how interesting is boolean partitioning? I bet
it has its uses.
