It took a while, but I found the problem. The fact that the prologue generation code didn't use the same alignment that we applied at in function.c. Now that I think about it, I'm actually surprised that this *does* work on x86_65 and ppc64. An accident of pre-existing alignment, I assume. I've reverted the patch til I can figure out the best way to proceed. r~
