// 2. overlap(A, B) implies overlap(A, S) for all S in supers(B).

// Here subregs(A) is the full flattened sub-register set returned by
// A.getSubRegs() while aliases(A) is simply the special 'Aliases' field in the
// description of register A.

// overlapping. This can happen when forming register pairs:
//
//    P0 = (R0, R1)
//    P1 = (R1, R2)
