Andi,

Thanks for reviewing my patches.

Although I agree with you, I think the reduced codesize is not enough a 
reason to keep code duplicated. If you can provide a version of it that 
is granted to reduce the code size for both i386 and x86_64, or even one 
that makes it minimal for x86_64 and yet, works with i386, fine.

Otherwise, I still think this is the best option.
