It introduced two regressions on 64-bit big-endian targets running under N32
(MultiSource/Benchmarks/tramp3d-v4/tramp3d-v4, and
MultiSource/Applications/kimwitu++/kc) The issue is that on 64-bit targets
comparisons such as BEQ compare the whole GPR64 but incorrectly tell the
instruction selector that they operate on GPR32's. This leads to the
elimination of i32->i64 extensions that are actually required by
comparisons to work correctly.
There's currently a patch under review that fixes this problem.

Summary:
Previously, the presence of KILL instructions would block valid candidates
from filling a specific delay slot. With the elimination of the KILL
instructions, in the appropriate range, we are able to fill more slots and
keep the information from future def/use analysis consistent.
