There is a way, using { } to indicate where overlap is allowed. The trans_*
functions checks the ISA version, and return false. Which causes the next
matching overlapping pattern to be used, etc. Have a look at some of the ARM
decodetree files.
But since Alisair is happy dropping 0.7.1 support, we should do that. It will
be cleaner not to have to retain the backward compatibility.

That makes sense to me.
Thanks to Alisair and Richard's feedback.
