you posted a small asm snippet.  seems like that'd be sufficient ?

in the Blackfin sim tests, i often just have the script exit 0 or 1 depending 
on the result.  if a specific insn is not calculating the right value (or is 
hitting an error it shouldn't), seems like you could do the same ?

	# pseudo code as my arm asm is not strong
	r1 = <known good value>
	r2 = <some input known to trigger bug>
	r3 = <diff input>
	r4 = r2 * r3
	if r1 != r4
		bx fail
	bx pass
