You could do it by making the code uglier without major
restructuring. This isn't a real problem since the code is already
extremely ugly.
The idea would be to have the decompilation function take a flag
indicating whether it should do work or not. Then have it return a
value indicating whether the function will be decompiled. (I haven't
looked at the code recently. There may be some other reason this
can't work.)
gcjh needs a major overhaul. Unfortunately it is very low priority.
