Alpha and "unop" pseudo-insn

GAS currently generates the following for the Alpha "unop" pseudo:

	ldq_u	zero, 0(v0)

DEC document AA-PS31D-TET1, section C.7, describes "unop" as:

	ldq_u	zero, 0(sp)

...which is also how the Tru64 (5.0) assembler assembles it.

I know the processor is supposed to discard loads into $31, but
is there any reason to not match the Tru64 assembler/documentation?
