  Oracle specifies a lot of impractical deprecations of existing
  mnenomics in the UA2011 manual.  For example, they also want to phase
  out "ldd" for integer registers and start to call it "ldtwa".  I wish
  them a lot of luck with that.
  
I hope I didn't use any other of these "improved" mnenomics.  The lzd
comment is in about a 3 point font, so I am bound to have missed such
comments about any other instructions.

They messed about with add and sub, deprecating addx and subx, I suppose
these are less harmful, snce they added lots of new instructions in that
area anyway.  I doubt I use addx or its new spelling.

  Besides, the manual can say whatever it wants, it's what the assembler
  accepts that matters, right? :-)

  BTW, I added support for all of the VIS3 instructions to binutils in
  2011, so build testing ought to not be that hard even on pre-T3
  machines.

Aren't you using your latest assembler?  :-)
(Else, you'd not have struck the lzcnt v2 issue...)
