... which cannot happen. :)

(Sorry, should have been more verbose).

See cpu_x86_load_seg_cache:

#ifdef TARGET_X86_64
            if ((env->hflags & HF_LMA_MASK) && (flags & DESC_L_MASK)) {
                /* long mode */
                env->hflags |= HF_CS32_MASK | HF_SS32_MASK | HF_CS64_MASK;
                env->hflags &= ~(HF_ADDSEG_MASK);
            } else
#endif
            {
                /* legacy / compatibility case */
                new_hflags = (env->segs[R_CS].flags & DESC_B_MASK)
                    >> (DESC_B_SHIFT - HF_CS32_SHIFT);
                env->hflags = (env->hflags & ~(HF_CS32_MASK | HF_CS64_MASK)) |
                    new_hflags;
            }

This is the only place where HF_CS64_MASK is added to env->hflags.  Then:

    dc->code64 = (flags >> HF_CS64_SHIFT) & 1;

#define CODE64(s) ((s)->code64)
