Hi,

Thank you for your response.

I have already tried to stay within one ISA but my attempt fails. You
may look here for full source of my try:
https://github.com/b-s-a/binutils-gdb/blob/z80-cgen/cpu/z80.cpu
(invalid decoder is generated for last 2 lines - "reti" (ED 4D) and
"retn" (ED 45) instructions, I have tried many types of ifields with
same result, but these are simpler to read). I cannot understand what
I'm doing wrong.

Best regards,
