Here is one that bugs me (adapted from fsys.S):

$ cat t.S
        mov psr.l = r2;;
        mov r25=ar.rnat
$ as -x t.S
/r/wailua/tmp/t.S: Assembler messages:
/r/wailua/tmp/t.S:3: Warning: Use of 'mov.m' violates RAW dependency 'PSR.si' (data)
/r/wailua/tmp/t.S:1: Warning: This is the location of the conflicting usage
$ as --version |head -1
GNU assembler 2.13.90 20030425

I think the warnings shows up because the assembler doesn't detect
that we're reading ar.rnat, not ar.itc.
