            Bug ID: 16075
           Summary: Support i386+ x86 32 bit movd mnemonic
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.23
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: gas
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: sourceware.org at neonics dot com

GAS supports suffixing many instructions with 'b', 'w', 'd' as a shorthand for
'byte ptr', 'word ptr', 'dword ptr', such as test, or, and, xor, cmp, cmps,
scas.

I can do:
   .intel_syntax noprefix

   or word ptr [memref], 1
   orw [memref], 1
   movw [memref], 1

   or dword ptr [memref], 1
   ord [memref], 1

but not:
   movd [memref], 1

I understand there may be a conflict with a 64 bit movd instruction that
supports MMX registers, however, is it possible to treat movd just like all the
other instructions?
