It could be split up. But I wouldn't count on anyone doing the work. Patches welcome, of course... Actually, I'm more interested in seeing if insn-emit.c can be reduced in size by avoiding duplicate functions (see e.g. gen_swapdi/gen_swapsi/gen_swapxf for x86_64 for a simple case of identical functions).
