FWIW, the sequence does not appear to be present in 3.7-dev, 4.0 or 7.3 sources. (For 3.x and 4.x I checked only ASTDEL, not ASMP code -- speaking on which, would not it be fun to emulate 11/782 or 11/784?) Is this exact sequence actually indicated by the instruction trace when running 4.5? Thanks,Sergey
