Heh, looks like I've managed to confuse even myself.  :-)

That must have been my interpretation of the manual at the time, but
upon running some actual tests it seems to be incorrect:

* SZ=0 results in fmov being 32 bit regardless of PR
* SZ=1 and PR=1 can be set at the same time and works as expected

Maybe the paragraph in the manual which says that [SZ,PR=11] gives
undefined behaviour actually meant to say that [SZ,PR=01] gives
undefined behaviour?
