   Well that is an improvement.   
   I am stipulating that HHH emulates 7 steps of D4   
   according to the definition of the x86 language.   
      
   More precisely HHH emulates the first four steps   
   of D4 and then emulates an instance of itself   
   emulating another instance of D4 until it reaches   
   the call 000015c3 instruction of this instance.
