Your patch isn't quite right.  It's true that matching constraints
are allowed only for registers.  But read-modify-write operands can
still be specified in other ways, specifically using the "+"
modifier.  Here's the patch which I'm testing at the moment.  I'll
commit it later today unless I find something wrong with it.
