+How about implementing truncate / anyext as a property of machine instruction
+operand? i.e. Print as 32-bit super-class register / 16-bit sub-class register.
+Do this for the cases where a truncate / anyext is guaranteed to be eliminated.
+For IA32 that is truncate from 32 to 16 and anyext from 16 to 32.
