I probably misunderstood, but I thought that was a no-go.
(Couple http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg02994.html
with Dan wanting the opcodes to practically be byte codes (or versa vice),
particularly to able to mmap code in read only and run straight from that.)
It could be that part of the "fixup" is to convert from bytes to wider ops,
or something similar. If that's the case, I can patch the code and rerun it.
