As I mentionned, ret is not the only instruction causing problems.
I've identified issues with leave, enter, iret, and even some forms of
the call instruction, and the list is probaly not complete yet. So it
could be even more complicated that we think.

It looks like x86emu was never tested with gcc produced code before.
And it looks like handling of the 0x66 instruction prefix has been
neglected in a lot of different places in the code.
