Out of curiosity, which places would that be? I only put UNLIKELY calls
around the checks for emacs_abort (which I presume to be unlikely), and
the LIKELY calls are of the form:
else if (LIKELY (<cond>))
{
...
}
else
emacs_abort ();
So if already at the "else if" clause, it's likely that the condition is
true, otherwise an abort would take place.
