Wouldn't this be nicer if you operated on the memory image, not the registers?

Seems reasonable on first glance.

What happens if the result is noncanonical?  A quick skim of the SDM
didn't find anything.  This latter issue goes away if you operate on
the memory image, though -- writing a bogus value is just fine, since
the FP restore will handle it.
