For the simple reason that this line violates the 80 columns and I
didn't want to bring any uglification to the code by breaking the line
in two.

For the generated asm it doesn't matter - it is simply done for keeping
the code as readable as possible.

There are 13 mca_cfg references total in that function so having it
shorter with a declaration at the beginning of the function of what cfg
is, is better IMO.

Ditto, 8 refs here.
