Hi Thomas,

These are fixes but to the best of my knowledge the only currently
supported system it would break is multicore I6400 on Malta, which only
exists in emulation at the moment. So it's probably not a huge deal to
get this into v4.3. If it's easy though, absolutely go ahead :)

I'll aim to be clearer when submitting future fixes about where they
apply.

Thanks,
Paul
