[llvm-dev] Opcodes with 32-bit pair vs 64-bit register operands

Can anyone suggest how to define an opcode that takes a pair of registers on a 32-bit architecture but a single 64-bit wide register on a 64-bit architecture? For example, the following instruction converts a double to a single. The source operand is a register of class "Pair64". Is there a way to define it such that the register class is defined at runtime when we know if it should be a 64-bit register class?
def FD2S_rr: RRX<0b00110,0,0,0, (outs Core32:$a), (ins Pair64:$b),
               "FD2S\t$a,$b"),[(set f32:$a, (fpround f64:$b))]>;
Example register classes:
def Core32: RegisterClass<"XYZ", [i32,f32], 32,
               (add R0,R1,R2,R3,...
def Pair64: RegisterClass<"XYZ", [i64,f64], 64,...
               (add R0R1, R2R3,...
def WideCore : RegisterClass<"XYZ", [i64,f64], 64,
               (add R0_64, R1_64 ...

def R0 : Core<0, "%r0">, DwarfRegNum<[0]>;
def R1 : Core<1, "%r1">, DwarfRegNum<[1]>;
def R2 : Core<2, "%r2">, DwarfRegNum<[2]>;
def R3 : Core<3, "%r3">, DwarfRegNum<[3]>;
def R0R1 : CorePair<0,"%r0",[R0,R1] >;
def R2R3 : CorePair<2,"%r2",[R2,R3] >;
def R0_64 : Core64<0, "%r0", [R0]>, DwarfRegNum<[0]>;
def R1_64 : Core64<1, "%r1", [R1]>, DwarfRegNum<[1]>;

As I understand it, tablegen emits static tables with hard references to register classes and such. I fear that I'll need to duplicate all the opcodes that have Pair64 operands and define identical ones with WideCore operands. I can imagine changing the tablegen backend to emit tables with dynamic initializers.
