And yet another corner case:

$ cat foo2.s
.set mips3
        ld $2, 0x80000000
        dsrl32 $2, 0
        sw $2, 0x80000008
.set mips0
$ mips-linux-as -32 foo2.s
foo2.s: Assembler messages:
foo2.s:2: Error: Number (0x080000000) larger than 32 bits
foo2.s:4: Error: Number (0x080000008) larger than 32 bits

I'm using '.set mips3' for "true" LD instruction (not two LW) in 32bit
kernel mode.  Is this legal or should I rewrite it?

Thank you.
