Hi Gautham,
I'm just getting back to this. Sorry for the late reply, and
thanks for the reviews.

Okay, thanks for confirming. We will have to be careful about this I

Ah I think you're right, good catch. Maybe oris r12,r12,0x3c is a better
choice than that insrdi?

Very much appreciate the reviews. I'm just getting some time to work on
the winkle count patch, so I'll repost with your suggestions when that's
done.
Thanks,
