I suggest instantiating an iterator on the units:

	Iterator it = units.snapshotIterator();
	Stmt t = null;
        while (it.hasNext())
	{
		t = (Stmt) it.next();
		if (!(t instanceof IdentityStmt))
			break;
	}

	units.insertBefore(t, stmt);

I have no idea what's going on here, but if you mailed me the resulting
Jimple file, I would most likely be able to tell what the problem is with
the Jimple you created.  Jimple is nice that way: it's easily readable.
