When did that change? It used to set CC  3.


MVCL does not move any bytes if destructive overlap is detected, but does  
not cause a program interrupt.  In that sense, it is the same as a NOPR (a  
2-byte-long NOP).  However, it does set condition code 3, but a genuine NOP  
does 
not set the condition code.
