burglary of a habitation was equivalent to burglary of a dwelling
and therefore was a crime of violence under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2, and
by Almendarez-Torres v. United States, 523 U.S. 224, 235 (1998),
which held that 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b)(2) is a penalty provision and
not a separate criminal offense. The Government’s motion for
