It's somewhat belatedly (sorry) occurred to me that the requirement to
use "-g" with this makes it unlikely there's any use case at all for
aliasing "&&".  The original one was to be able to do

  && stuff

by aliasing (not to "foo", obviously) at the start of an expression, so
it had its normal effect at the end.  You can't do that any more.
