Correct intel_syntax fsub* and fdiv* handling. Oh, how I'd like to be rid
of UNIXWARE_COMPAT.

gcc and possibly many other programs use this reversed syntax, so
we're stuck with it.
- eg. `fsub %st(3),%st' results in st <- st - st(3) as expected, but
- `fsub %st,%st(3)' results in st(3) <- st - st(3), rather than
- the expected st(3) <- st(3) - st !

This happens with all the non-commutative arithmetic floating point
operations with two register operands, where the source register is
- %st, and destination register is %st(i). Look for FloatDR below. */
