2.1.128 / current EGCS

Current EGCS/PGCC snapshots don't like this construct in
include/asm/string.h:

__asm__("cld\n\t" \
"rep ; movsl" \
x \
: /* no outputs */ \
: "c" (n/4),"D" ((long) to),"S" ((long) from) \
: "cx","di","si","memory");

("fixed or forbidden register 2 (cx) was spilled for class CREG.")

Is there any fix for this (aside from switching to gcc or an earlier EGCS
snapshot, which of course works)?
