Comment:

 This was opened 4 years ago; let's see if we can remove the hack and close
 it now.

 nb, it's now in `nativeGen/X86/CodeGen.hs`.

Old description:

 Remove the hack around Line 3914 labeled with:

 -- HACK: On x86_64 binutils2.17 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.
