 * don't have the same length. This used to be written as
 *
 * .if ((664b-663b) != (662b-661b))
 * 	.error "Alternatives instruction length mismatch"

 * but most assemblers die if insn1 or insn2 have a .inst. This should
 * be fixed in a binutils release posterior to 2.25.51.0.2 (anything
 * containing commit 4e4d08cf7399b606 or c1baaddf8861).
