>Environment:

	The -current VM source.

>Description:

	While reading the VM source for -current I found an unneces-
sary test in an if/else construct.  If something is known to be not 0
it is not 0 - no need to test again.  ;-)

	It might save a few bytes in the code and also a few cycles
once in a while I think.  At least it is easier to read w/o rechecking
the condition.

>How-To-Repeat:

	N/A

>Fix:
