Yes, this was expected. That patch explicitly only works on x86-64,
because 32-bit needs the double register handling for 64-bit values
(mainly loff_t).

Ok, good. That confirms that the problem you reported is indeed the
register allocation.
The patch I sent an hour ago (the one based on Rasmus' one from
yesterday) should fix things too, and - unlike yesterday's - work on
32-bit.
But I'll wait for confirmation (and hopefully a sign-off from Rasmus
so that I can give him authorship) before actually committing it.
