Maybe later gcc versions have improved in matter. I have tested  
patches with gcc-4.7, gcc-4.6 and clang-3.0 on i386 and didn't run  
into register allocation problems. If there will be problems, there is  
some room for improvement in current asm code (use less "r" variables,  
reuse %%esi for pointers etc, or split asm sequences so that gcc can  
reallocate input asm registers from/to stack).
