BTW this case worked before but now fails with latest changes (not currently part of the tests):

    static int f(int a, int b, int n) {
        return (n < 10) ? a : b;
    }

But i don't know if it worked before you modified to do a single pass. The issue is the block parameter modeling the result of the conditional expression is not used as the operand to the return operation. So there is something up with what's pushed onto the stack.
