--- Comment #1 from Marco <mvanotti at protonmail.com> ---
The error here seems to be in this if condition:

```
if (process_ea(opy, &ea_data, bits,
               rfield, rflags, ins, &errmsg) != eat) {
    nasm_nonfatal("%s", errmsg);
    return -1;
```

The function process_ea only populates the errmsg in the case of an error
(which would be signalled by returning EA_INVALID). In the program above, it
returns an ea_type that is not EA_INVALID, it is EA_XMMVSIB, so the error
message ptr is not set.

A solution could be to check if the result is EA_INVALID, and then print the
error, and print a different error if it is not EAT, not populating errmsg.
