Quick look at page 9-24 of the Kane book indicates that for d between +15
and -16 we use format 42 and for d outside that range, we use format 3.
Looks like nobody bothered to teach binutils about this longer form yet.
Is it possible it's only available for PA2.0 processors?

the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those
conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse
to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince 
himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep 
he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception." -- Mark Twain
