First off: lxvp is a VSX insn, not an MMA insn.  So please don't call it
that -- this confusion is what presumably caused the problem here, so it
would be good to root it out :-)

Why do people expect that?  It is completely wrong.  The name "opaque"
itself already says this is not just for MMA, but perhaps more
importantly, it is a basic VSX insn, doesn't touch any MMA resources,
and is useful in other contexts as well.

So this needs some bigger surgery.
