Well, I've got some remains of sanity still in place. ;)
Speaking of which, I plan to get back to the microMIPS changes, well...
sometime. Hopefully this month. Sorry about the delays.

Oops, sorry about that. I sent an outdated version it would seem as my
current one did have this file included.

Hmm, does it? I did verify it both on a GNU/Linux and an ELF target. It
still passes for me, except that:
+ Advance PC by 24 to 0x64
is required instead as with my intended-to-be-sent-originally change.
Likewise:
+ Advance PC by 23 to 0x40
for the MIPS16 dump. Which target is failing for you? Perhaps the cause
was merely the outdated version of the change, sigh...

I have regenerated and revalidated the change now and I'm ready to push
it, but I'd prefer the final DWARF-2 instructions to be matched exactly.
I made the effort to make the source alignment-agnostic and I'd prefer to
keep the final offsets to be verified literally so that any unexpected
discrepancies are caught.
Here's a version of the change I'd like to push. If that still fails on
any of your pet targets, then I'll be happy to reintroduce the wildcard
match. Otherwise I'll insist on keeping it as is.
And BTW, thanks a lot for the register mask, etc. rewrites! They make
this piece of code much easier to follow.
