Some of the comments in these patches suggest it might trigger
the warning in the disassembler about length mismatches; possibly
also you might get duff (truncated) disassembly output? I suspect
that's probably the extent of the problem. I guess these days the
plugin API might get confused -- does it treat one of these
nothing-there TBs as "nothing there" or does it try to work with
the possibly-half-an-insn ?
