For this code:
x:
 swym
0:
 setl $9,#1F
1:
 setl $8,#1B2F
 setl $7,0xFF9F
 setl $6,#1F3A
9:
 setl $5,#1B
 setl $4,#1A1B
 setl $3,0x9F
 setl $2,0x9B

Assembled with default options, you get this disassembly:
/tmp/x.o:     file format elf64-mmix

If there are other misassembled cases, they'll have a new PR.
