I think that 5 (using an if-test to guarentee sign-extension) would be pretty
bad.  My notion is the interaction with branch prediction would be rather
poor because it wouldn't be predictable.  This is a case where something like
conditional move would be a win.
For IntInf I don't think the price is too high if it can be avoided in the
fixnum case.
