Thanks, I will address this later today. The problem is in the asm code
I added to work with __PIC__ on i386.

/tmp/ccO6wCzI.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccO6wCzI.s:38815: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `push'
/tmp/ccO6wCzI.s:38818: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `pop'

amd64 doesn't have the __PIC__ restriction that i386 does, so it should
be an easy fix... but I'll actually test it on amd64 before posting the
patch again ;)
