Thanks, and yes :/ They changed it in October17 (which I actually had a copy
of so I'm not sure why I was looking at March17).
Back when we did that patch the SDM didn't have that extra ModR/M on,
and binutils disassembled it as the 2 byte (bad) thing, which was all
good.
Then someone went and wrecked it.
