Eduardo, I know I've asked you before about this ... but please STOP
stripping the mailing list CC when I send a message to the mailing list.
I intended for this thread to show up in the mail archives.

Our assembly routines are processed by the C preprocessor (obviously
they are, since you are TESTING for _LP64 being defined).  Therefore,

will be defined, and the right thing will happen.
