</blockquote></div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Sorry this wasn't clear. My intent was to say that bit 1 was set but that the other bits were poison. With this in mind, it is legal to throw the poison away if you don't want to keep the or instruction if you replace it with a value which has bit 1 set (these semantics are just like undef).</div></div>
