Do you mean the term "ffp replacement", or what the code is doing? I for one 
call our nvrc code an ffp replacement as well, however, there's no sharp 
border between programmable and fixed function functionality. I've seen 
articles which called GL_ARB_texture_env_combine "programmable" as well.

I don't know if we can support 1.x pixel shaders properly using atifs because 
texkill and texdepth are missing. However, the visual test shows that the 
texdepth test is completely broken on my r200 card on Windows, and texkill 
basically works, but doesn't conform to the refrast and behavior of newer 
cards, so games should not really use those instructions.
