Is it possible to have the compiler not generate conditional jumps but
rather actually evaluate True>>ifTrue:, False>>ifTrue: etc etc for your own
True and False classes (MTrue and MFalse???)?

Is there something I'm forgetting which makes this obviously not work? Are
conditional jumps really required?
