[issue14169] compiler.compile fails on "if" statement in attached file

[Mark Dickinson]

Okay, so the issue is simply that the compiler module doesn't have logic for emitting the EXTENDED_ARGS[1] bytecode instruction to properly deal with a jump target that won't fit in two bytes.  Given that the compiler module is deprecated, I propose closing this as 'won't fix'.
