This looks rather convoluted.  I'd prefer to add a helper for the body
of this loop, and then explicitly call it for all the valid
combinations.  Right now all are valid, so this dosn't change a thing
except for generating larger code due to the explicit loop unrolling,
but I think it is much easier to follow and maintain.
