A small thing: you're changing a pair of shifts by 16 to a single
shift by 32.  That will lead to warnings when compiled on a 32 bit
processor.  That's why the shifts by 16 are there.  Also, note that
gas normally use valueT and addressT rather than bfd_vma.  (I actually
don't see any semantic change here at all, although I am probably
missing something.)
