With the final two patches I've just sent, all of these pass, both on

Many thanks for tracking these w64-related bugs down. Do you have a
debugging environment for w64, or did you find the bugs be reading the
(preprocessed) assembly code?
I have access to a real windows environment as well, where I used gdb to
help me track them down, which really helped a lot this time. I've never
taken the time to figure out how to use winedbg properly...
Looking at W64_ENTRY, do you remember why the stack allocation for saved
xmm registers is done as
sub [$]eval(8 + 16*($2 - 6)), %rsp
Subtracting the extra 8 bytes seems useless; at least I don't see
anything stored at that location. I wonder if maybe that was an
incomplete attempt at getting a 16-byte aligned pointer for the the xmm
stores?
Hmm, yes, I think that might have been the case. So since we can't rely on
that being aligned anyway, we could just as well skip the 8 byte offset.
