That looks very promising, I will look into it for v2. Thanks for the
pointer.

I guess it might be worth it to add __xlated to at least on test per
nospec-related code path. If there are other rewrites at play that will
make it harder to adapt the tests when the other rewrite is ever
changed, but it might also help in catching interactions between the
other rewrites and the nospec.

Also, thanks for the review of patches 2 and 3.
