 Replying to [comment:30 simonmar]:

 > I spotted one problem: you're referring to `fun` in two places, which
 might duplicate some code.  The original patch put it in a temp variable
 for this reason.  It's a good idea to peer at the Cmm code being generated
 to see whether it looks as you expect.

 Ah, okay. I will reinstate the temp variable for `fun` and then run nofib
 again, this time more carefully.

 > We'll need a test for this in `testsuite/codeGen`.

 Okay.
