That predicate has been the largest in the compiler for a long time now:
1700+ lines, with the next longest predicate that isn't a collection of facts
being just 620 lines. I will look into it, but I know it is a hornet's nest.
(Unlike the fifth entry on the attached size list, in which the attached diff
eliminates a whole bunch of duplicate code.)
