This give about 3% more on macroBenchmark2 by optimizing two conversions.

Another 3% or so is possible in TMethod>>statementsListsForInlining, the
sequential ifTrue's instead of some sort of switch statement are a bit
costly. By reordering the cases and using nested condtitionals, a couple
percent can be gained. [*]

IMHO, that is not worth it. that would make it less clear, and its code
that is seldom run.
