OK, it's not quite ready for primetime but take a look at:

http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/xenlinux-ia64-2.6.12.hg?cmd=file;fileno
de=2ef68fa5385f2dcd1610f67dbfcee0d3d2c7bb37;file=include/asm-ia64/xen/pr
ivop.h 

(If this hg link is problematic, let me know and I will send it
as an attachment.)

Well, with both Tony and David voting for this, I will just
try to regen the patch to avoid replacing those constructs.

It looks like I will have to either move the extra level of
abstraction to several define's in both gcc_intrin.h and
intel_intrin.h -- or use an #ifdef __INTEL_COMPILER in
xen/privop.h.  Any preference which approach is better?

Thanks,
Dan
