Please use a switch for dealing with enum-typed values.
Because the current type only has JUMP_LABEL_NOP and JUMP_LABEL_JMP,
using if may be simpler than switch.
IIRC we used an enum with descriptive names instead of a boolean because
true/false just doesn't tell you much.
The whole thing fundamentally is a boolean descision though, either
you write a JMP or a NOP, jump-labels don't have more options.
Ah thanks for the background. My previous suggestion is just kinda
generally applicable software engineering best practice, so if the
actual enum is unlikely to get >2 variants then it should be fine to
keep using "if". Youling, feel free to ignore the piece of comment, and
sorry for not doing my archaeology beforehand. :)
