Even with the old assembler, I get the correct answer. It might be
something with your version of perl. I'm using 5.6.1. I'll try to find a
5.005 version and retry.

Sorry: I was unclear.
I meant: the current assembly is broken here ( I have perl 5.005 BTW )
( debugging shows that the register is set to zero instead of say 12,
and if I change the assembly from 0b1100 to 12, the test passes )
I din't try the new assembler.
