Subject: Interesting AML bug... recommended workaround?

Here's what seems to be an interesting AML or AML parser bug.

	OperationRegion(PSRG, SystemMemory, 0x0410, 0x1)
	Field(PSRG, DWordAcc, NoLock, Preserve) {
		,	2,
		PS2E,	1
	}

The field is marked for 32-bit access, but the region is only 1 byte 
wide.  What's the correct thing to do here?  Expand the region to 
accomodate the field's access requirements?  Constrain the access size of 
the field to that of the region?
