  Ugh, this is unreadable -- can you please figure out a way to fit it in
79 columns?  Perhaps by factoring this piece out?

Yeah, it's not pretty. I've got a v2 which refactors this into is_sp_move_ins, which makes it work the same way as is_ra_save_ins and perform the immediate interpretation there, instead. But I've kept that as a separate patch so as to keep the functional fix and refactor separate.


  Also this:

	tmp = (ip->halfword[0] >> 1) & 0x1ff;
	tmp = tmp | ((tmp & 0x100) ? 0xfe00 : 0);

will likely result in better code without the conditional, e.g.:

	tmp = (((ip->halfword[0] >> 1) & 0x1ff) ^ 0x100) - 0x100;

(the usual way to sign-extend).

Yes, that looks nicer.

Thanks,
Matt
