An optimization that avoided allocation of a stack frame for some case expressions was introduced in OTP 21. (ERL-504/OTP-14808) It turns out that in rare circumstances, this optimization is not safe. Therefore, this optimization has been disabled.

A similar optimization will be included in OTP 22 in a safe way.
