Yeah, I agree that this is in principal a good thing and what makes
CPython ideally suited for research. However, my optimizations make
use of unused opcodes, which might be used in the future by actual
CPython instructions (e.g., from my previous patch to the new one the
YIELD_FROM instruction has been added.)
I'd say the situation is similar to the threaded code/computed goto's issue.

I am going to file a patch like Martin von Loewis suggested.
