      <para>Copy two general-purpose registers to a pair of 32-bit SIMD&amp;FP registers
transfers the contents of two consecutively
numbered single-precision Floating-point registers to two general-purpose
registers, or the contents of two general-purpose registers to a
pair of single-precision Floating-point registers. The general-purpose
registers do not have to be contiguous.</para>
