You don’t say… oh well.
GCC 4.7 uses the cas instruction, against the recommendations
of the Linux kernel developers. What’s to say? Let’s force it
to use the syscall then.

Okay. So there’s something wrong with either the way how
GCC uses the syscall, or how the syscall is implemented
in Linux, or how ARAnyM runs that (unlikely).
Additionally, GCC doesn’t use the syscall with -m68020,
which is default in Debian/m68k. Linux and Debian devs,
please comment on whether that should be kept or changed.
Thanks,
