Duh, you're right, cwd/cdq/cqo uses SrcAcc which has c->src.bytes = (c->d & ByteOp) ? 1 : c->op_bytes; so in practice c->src.bytes = c->op_bytes. I still find it confusing that DstDX would use c->op_bytes without honoring ByteOp unlike pretty much everything else; but yes, there is a possible use of DstDX outside in/out. Paolo
