Many actually come in quadruples, bit 0 is the size and bit 1 says which of ModRM and REG is the destination.

example:

D2bv(DstMem | SrcReg | ModRM | Lock), D2bv(DstReg | SrcMem | ModRM),


Right.  We can't exploit those yet.

I'd like to make operand encoding regular (same bit definitions for Src, Dst, and Src2) which would allow us to do this (and have a decode_operand() and fetch_operand() instead of the current three switches).
