These two do the same thing. The 32-bit version is simpler because we
can rely on the linker to do fixups for us if the branch is too far
away. The 64-bit version always uses a long branch sequence to avoid
stub issues with the 64-bit toolchain. In the C code I have simply not
done this (micro-)optimization.
