Hmmm?  I thought 'L' was for registers, and 'MA' was for memory access.
This is the only instruction that modifies a gpr but doesn't call 'L'.
Figured it was an oversight.

Actually I was just going for consistancy (everywhere else that
modifies nip uses SET_NIP).  I'll gladly drop this part of the
