Do we need to do it for =E2=80=98lower-object=E2=80=99?  I think that one i=
s (almost)
always called from a gexp compiler where it=E2=80=99s explicitly passed =E2=
=80=98system=E2=80=99
and =E2=80=98target=E2=80=99.

Also, a test or two would be welcome as it=E2=80=99s easy to break it witho=
ut
noticing.

Otherwise LGTM, thank you, and sorry for the delay!
