On x86 - both 32- and 64-bit - the code laid out for transitionining into a vtos bytecode when having a reference and int top-of-stack state is semantically identical, and can be coalesced.
This patch removes a short jump on some cases which is marginally beneficial when interpreting, while measurably reducing overhead of generating the interpreter itself.
