<li><I>Analysis</I>. Fixed an exception in the EmbeddedMediaAnalyzer that occurred when media was discovered at the very end of the address space. (GT-2890)</li>
<li><I>Analysis</I>. Recognition and disassembly of the FMA, F16C, and several missing AVX instructions have been added to the base x86 processor specification. The pcode for these instructions is pseudo-op and not a full pcode implementation. (GT-3168)</li>
