amd64, ia32 emulation on an amd64 and ppc32 produce the same -- mostly
correct -- result for r/w/t now.  But things like still appear (they
also happen with 1.2.4 on i386): (ele should be zero/undefined)

        A manager went to the master programmer and showed him the requirements
document for a new application.  The manager asked the master: "How long will
it take to design this system if I assign five programmers to it?"
        "It will take one year," said the master promptly.
        "But we need this system immediately or even sooner!  How long will it
take it I assign ten programmers to it?"
        The master programmer frowned.  "In that case, it will take two years."
        "And what if I assign a hundred programmers to it?"
        The master programmer shrugged.  "Then the design will never be
completed," he said.
