How about the patch below before this patch? The supports_op() will
reject multi-byte opcodes anyway, so we only care about single-byte
opcodes for now. Multi-byte opcodes can be patched and tested later.
This avoids squashing changes in this patch and having the changes split
over two patches; one before and one after.
