  • Those also break userland regs like following.

    5: 83 ca ff or $0xffffffff,%edx
    8: 0f b7 4c 24 08 movzwl 0x8(%esp),%ecx

    [ I would _really_ like to have a way to tell gcc about calling
    conventions. The "prevent_tail_call()" macro is pretty ugly ]

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
