Agh, I'm hopeless.

I don't think it really resolves this issue. But probably don't have time
to look at generated asm, and might never because it won't really hit
LE unless we add a 32-bit ABI. It's pretty minor though either way.

Sorry for being difficult, I really do like your patches :)

Thanks,
Nick
