If we push this back to gen>7 it will allow us to use it with its
cmdparser as well.

Hmm? I guess we could just do gen>6 so that there's some systematic
cutoff point.

I think this approach should do the trick even for my attempts to
frustrate you.

With consensus on when to use COND_BB_END and verification I haven't
caused havoc...
