A wild wild guess is that there was code in the compiler that used to  
require it (after all, it was required a long time ago), and somehow it  
got reactivated by accident.

But wild guesses don't help fix bugs :)

In doing a search through my email of the dmd-internals mailing list, I  
don't see opCmp anywhere.
