I think we're miscommunicating here, Rod. I know you know your ***, but
I'm quite certain Ndisasm is "fixed" not "broken" between 0.98.39 and
2.03.01...

I'm still not sure what the justification for that tenacious belief is...

The source is 16 bits...

That is what Ndisasm is doing to lsl, and lar
decodes... It's emitting a 16-bit register for a 32-bit one,
erroneously.
Well, file a bug report:

Four guys who develop NASM reading a.l.a. and I have to file a bug report?
...

<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=106208&group_id=6208&func=browse>


From the length of that list it seems they aren't being resolved, but OK
I'll file one.

This is it: ID 2063064.

Thank you. As you quote in your bug report, this change was introduced as a fix for the "bug" of it workin' like you want. I rather expect it will be resolved as "not a bug"... we shall see. Maybe you can convince 'em they were wrong to make this change... Not up to me.

Best,
Frank
