For targets where TARGET_LONG_BITS != 32, i.e. 64-bit guests,
addr_reg is moved to r4. For hosts with TCG_TARGET_CALL_ALIGN_ARGS
either data_reg2 or data_reg or a masked version thereof would overwrite
r4. Place it in r5 instead, matching TCG_TARGET_CALL_ALIGN_ARGS hosts.

This might explain crashes observed on Darwin/ppc but not on ppc64.

Right you are.

Er, obviously I meant "without". :)

Confirmed with qemu-system-x86_64 on Darwin/ppc - hangs without, works
with patch. Thanks for making me aware of that line of code. :)

I'll have a suggestion how to simplify your updated patch and will
resubmit fixed as [PATCH] series after testing. Hoping you can get a
non-Umlaut-broken version from Patchwork. ;)

Cheers,
Andreas
