the body of the word itself is a bunch of stack manipulation and some calls to words that actually produce output. the calls to pack8 and pack32 are producing low-level output of integer values having certain byte sizes.

the calls to rex-w and addressing-reg-64 are using helper words defined elsewhere in this same file; they do things that are specific to Intel machine code, but shared by many instructions.
