Probably not, at least yet. All of those instructions are DX10.1 level 
instructions which support splitting of samplers and the underlaying resource, 
we don't support that yet.

I don't think any of the open drivers actually implement this scheme quite 
yet. The resources are declared using ureg_DECL_resource, the resulting code 
would look something like:
DCL RES[0], 2D, FLOAT

LOAD DST[0], SRC[0], RES[0]

Two four component integer vectors, first is the coordinate the other is the 
offset. I think gpu_program4 specifies that instruction.

Ultimately I wanted to replace all the texture sampling/fetching/loading 
instructions with the DX10.1 variants. There's less of them and they're 
cleaner. Drivers which don't support that split could just ignore it. For 
various reasons I never finished it so this texture sampling code is quite 
frankly half-assed, I'd just use the documented/driver implemented opcodes and 
leave others untouched.
