IMHO handling a shift by zero correctly is important.

Why not the shorter:

And then in __ashrdi3:

		"andi	%1, %3, 0x20\n\t"
		".set	push\n\t"
		".set	noat\n\t"
		"sra	$1, %M2, 31\n\t"
		"movn	%L0, %M0, %1\n\t"
		"movn	%M0, $1, %1\n\t"
		".set	pop"

Cute, but I think that should be

	"sra	$1, %M0, 31\n\t"

(i.e %M0 not %M2)
