Store(Local0, Local0) behavior?

Store(Local0, Local0) behavior?

[Nate Lawson]

Sometime around 0619, executing an opcode of Store(Local0, Local0) started
generating an error instead of just being a no-op.  In reading the 2.0b
spec, there is no evidence that this is an illegal operation.  Could
someone restore the previous behavior?  What part of ACPICA handles the
Store opcode?

I will re-address this issue (in the case where Local0 is
uninitialized.)

Thank you!  Here's a snippet of ASL from my BP6:

Scope(\_SI_) {
    Method(_MSG, 1) {
        Store(Local0, Local0)
    }
