Extended Description

The AsmParser isn't catching illegal casts and reporting them as errors. This
causes llvm-as to fail with an assertion when the attempt is made to instantiate
the illegal cast instruction. For example:

%X = trunc i32 %Y to i8*

The instruction needed here is inttoptr, not trunc. This causes an assertion
instead of a nice error message.
