It takes us back to the original proposal that started this whole
thing.
cf. <3fb5a7ff-a63a-6fac-1456-4dbc9135d088@gmail.com>
After re-reading the thread, I still do not quite follow why it was
considered better to change the way "exec" is run with the command
line option than to implement this as a new insn [*1*], but that is
where this series fit in the larger picture, I think.
[Footnote]
*1* The original proposal called it "test" which I do not think was
a great name.
