Note that in this case, the bug was actually _hidden_ by audit (since
the audit path would end up reloading %rax, and is why doing "auditctl
-a task,never" actually enabled people to see it), so it would also be
good to try to make sure that the tests would try both with and
without audit involved too.

I'm very tired of these bugs, but I guess and hope that your patches
to move as much as possible of this to C will actually end up helping
in the long run. So while I'm not really looking forward to even
_more_ patches to the low-level asm, at least the C rewrite seems more
worthwhile than some of the noise that made this all so painful has
felt.
