I didn't look it up, but I don't think you can get 0C4-03B if in AMODE 31 unless you're dealing with some instruction that is not sensitive to the AMODE when deciding which bits of a register or control area to use for addressing (and I don't know if there are any such instructions, but I haven't scoured the architecture).
>From what is shown, the instruction is a LMH (hence not special). I'll ask the LE folks "why the asterisks". Might it mean "all 0"? But even if so, why bother not just displaying? If they have room in the display for 64-bit regs, why not just display them? Perhaps (for some strange reason) they don't capture 64-bit regs for AMODE 31 events (not that I'd like that answer) and the asterisks indicate "data not available".
