I think I'm OK with changing that but it does leave us with a different issue of knowing which subset of instructions should check for 9-bit displacement. I.e. not all instructions only have a 9-bit displacement. A GCC 6 thing would be to look over all the ISA_HAS macros and perhaps do some general improvement in the framework we have there. I don't know exactly what I'd do but something a bit more table based seems sensible. Matthew
