I don't think the MC Disassembler was touched, so this should still work but not the branch analysis and other stuff.

Fracture does this here:
https://github.com/draperlaboratory/fracture/blob/master/lib/CodeInv/Disassembler.cpp#L142
Specifically here is where it recovers the MCID which allows you to rebuild the MachineInstr object with some fidelity using the MIB:
