While not producing bad side effects here (as Keir convinced me), it is
generally wrong (i.e. it would work right only because of the more than
odd constraint on the operand, which are needed to work around a
quirk in the assembler that was fixed about ten months ago). However,
the / prefix separation in general has been supported for far more than
a year, so I wonder what specific problem you were seeing (and with
how old an assembler)...
