Hi !

I've run the valgrind tests on Qemu 0.8.2, in particular insn_basic, insn_fpu, 
  _mmx, _sse, _sse2. No bugs were found in SSE and FPU emulation, but one was 
found in MMX !:

   ~/tests/none/tests/amd64 # diff insn_mmx.r insn_mmx.stdout.exp
   1,6c1,2
   < movd_1 ... not ok
   <   result0.sd[0] = 1234 (expected 1234)
   <   result0.sd[1] = 0 (expected 5678)
   < movd_2 ... not ok
   <   result0.sd[0] = 1234 (expected 1234)
   <   result0.sd[1] = 0 (expected 5678)
   ---
   > movd_1 ... ok
   > movd_2 ... ok

Which comes from the following test:
   #
   # %mm <-> ireg64
   #
   movd mm.sd[1234,5678] r64.sd[1111,2222] => 1.sd[1234,5678]
   movd r64.sd[1234,5678] mm.sd[1111,2222] => 1.sd[1234,5678]


So one MMX bug when using 64 bits regs has been found, but the SSE2 bug is
still a mystery :-(

Cheers,
