Nit, the above can be written as:

			pred->op = pret->op != OP_BAND ? : OP_EQ;
  

Heh.  Those are not equivalent.  The right way to write this is:

You mean because of my typo?

No, I hadn't seen the s/pred/pret/ typo.  Your code does:

	if (pred->op != OP_BAND)
		pred->op = true;
	else
		pred->op OP_EQ;

Realy we should probably trigger a static checker warning any time
someone does a compare operations as part of a "x = comparison ?: bar;
Years ago, someone asked me to do that with regards to error codes like:

	return ret < 0 ?: -EINVAL;

but I don't remember the results.
