Expand Up @@ -921,7 +921,7 @@ conv.ovf.u4.un -> uint.MaxValue (0xFFFFFFFF)

However, the source of these opcodes can be a float value and it was not clear how in such case .un should be treated. The ECMA was saying: ""The item on the top of the stack is treated as an unsigned value before the conversion." but there was no definition of "treated" so the result of:
ldc.r4 -1
conv.ovf.i4.un
conv.ovf.i4.un
was ambiguous, it could treat -1 as 0xFFFFFFFF and return 0xFFFFFFFF or it could throw an overflow exception.

### III.3.19, conv.ovf.to type.un (page 354)

This should be put into a new section describing feature area. Effectively, each set of changes to the Ecma standard describes what the general impact is, and then there is the modification to the actual standardese. As it is this work is appended onto the covariant return types work, but really should be in its own chunk.

I see, I have added a new chapter and tried to add a justification for the change. I have not found a template for this, looks like different chapters are organized differently, please tell me if you want me to add issue numbers, link to the current standard, or something else.
