Right.  But I guess what I trying to was was more about me being
surprised that it's only in what may be _older_ firmware (based on the
assumption, which I _think_ is valid, that Firmware part numbers are
ordered by date).

I'm not surprised there's an undocumented opcode.  I'm surprised to
think it's older and was removed.  That's not the usual trend.
