I believe the exact data-cache layout can affect the basic
syscall-path quite significantly.  Thus, I can certainly see why
apparently unrelated changes could affect the syscall path.  Getting
better control over the data-layout would be nice (Ken's GP-relative
addressing work may a helpful step in that direction).
