I think I can see a bug here – the compile guard on the definition of

The MSVC version of this structure works around a quirk in the windows
ABI in a way that is not 64-bit safe, and you shouldn't need this on
Linux.  The result of this will be resolve_func returning a junk
JSValuePtr for the function object.

You nailed it. Fixing this makes the JIT work on my laptop.
If you deem it necessary, I can file a bug and attach a patch for this
issue.

Please do!

I will, anyways, file a bug and attach a patch to enable JIT
on x86-64 for WebKitGtk later today.

That sounds good as well.

PS: for the curious, some performance figures: On my laptop, sunspider
runs in 1685ms on x86-64 where the x86 version runs in 1965ms. But
that's without forcing the CPU to be fullspeed all the time in both
cases, which *does* improve sunspider results (and help have more stable
results)

Sounds about right - we get a similar speedup on Mac OS X from x86_64.
