eh, (1 << 7) is 128, and we have a maximum value of 63 (which plus the
one is 64). You can verify this by thinking about having four bits, is
a halfword, which we use hex numbers to deal with, so the number of
values you can decode there is 16, then you have two more bits, which
each doubles the number of values, so this becomes 64 values total,
ie. from 0 through 63.  :)

I'm looking at it, and I don't understand why you don't want to
consider bit[4] ?
