Bad news...

The IXL/IXH/IYL/IYH instructions seem to be compatible.

The IN F,(C) instruction was present on the Z80, so Z380 can probably
handle it, although it is not documented in the Z380 manual.

But the opcodes of the R800 multiply instructions are used for completely
different instructions on the Z380. For example R800's "MULUB A,B" is a POP
instruction on the Z380.
