    The D30V version of `as' uses the instruction names in the D30V
 Architecture Manual.  However, the names in the manual are sometimes
 ambiguous.  There are instruction names that can assemble to a short or
 long form opcode.  How does the assembler pick the correct form?  `as'
 will always pick the smallest form if it can.  When dealing with a
 symbol that is not defined yet when a line is being assembled, it will
 always use the long form.  If you need to force the assembler to use
 either the short or long form of the instruction, you can append either
 `.s' (short) or `.l' (long) to it.  For example, if you are writing an
 assembly program and you want to do a branch to a symbol that is
 defined later in your program, you can write `bra.s foo'.  Objdump and
 GDB will always append `.s' or `.l' to instructions which have both
 short and long forms.
