   What happens if you do:   
      
      neg eax   
      mov eax,0   
      adc eax,eax   
      
   This does not use any extra regs, and the NEG and the MOV should still   
   run in the same cycle even if they both use EAX as the target. This is   
   because the MOV form is known to not depend on the previous value in   
   EAX, so it can be started even before the NEG.
