Wait a moment - I remember informing somebody (probably you) that all 32-bit 
Slackware-based root_fs work in SKAS3 mode very well on 64-bit hosts.

And you saying "yes it works, I know this".

SKAS64 support is implemented in the SKAS patch, but IIRC not in the guest 
kernel - there are just a few things to fix up (for instance 
using /proc/mm64), but I gave up as I hadn't found a solution to SKAS32-on-64 
problems, and the changes were boring to do, and impossible to get right 
without a testing possibility.

Actually, there is even some information I saved on a bug interfering here - 
i.e. a description from Bodo Stroesser.

I've not found the time to do my homeworks on the subject (aka studying the 
SYSENTER instruction) and then go studying that description.
