+ * m68k-opc.c (m68k_opcodes): Changed operand specifier for the
+ coldfire moveb instruction to not allow an address register as
+ destination. Although the documentation does not indicate that
+ this is invalid, experiments uncovered unexpected behavior.
+ Added a comment explaining the situation. Thanks to Andreas
+ Schwab for pointing this out to me.

+/* NOTE: The mcf5200 family programmer's reference manual does not
+ indicate the byte form of the movea instruction is invalid (as it
+ is on 68000 family cpus). However, experiments on the 5202 yeild
+ unexpected results. The value is copied, but it is not sign extended
+ (as is done with movea.w) and the top three bytes in the address
+ register are not disturbed. I don't know if this is the intended
+ behavior --- it could be a hole in instruction decoding (Motorola
+ decided not to trap all invalid instructions for performance reasons)
+ --- but I suspect that it is not.
+
+ I reported this to Motorola ISD Technical Communications Support,
+ which replied that other coldfire assemblers reject movea.b. For
+ this reason I've decided to not allow moveab.
