 Remove the hack around Line 3914 labeled with:

     -- HACK: On x86_64 binutils<2.17 is only able to generate PC32
     -- relocations, hence we only get 32-bit offsets in the jump
     -- table. As these offsets are always negative we need to properly
     -- sign extend them to 64-bit. This hack should be removed in
     -- conjunction with the hack in PprMach.hs/pprDataItem once
     -- binutils 2.17 is standard.

 This bug is intended for house keeping.
