That opcode is labeled as stable.

BTW, this is not the only illegal opcode used in homebrewed games. If you're using the SLEEP macro in macro.h and have not turned of illegal opcodes, then when your SLEEP value is >= 3 you're using nop 0.

Just a little FYI for those that might not know.

Take care,
Dennis
